Carpenters - Christmas Portrait (Special Edition/Reissue)

Overture - An Old Fashioned Christmas

Happy holidays
Happy holidays
While the merry bells keep ringing
May your every wish come true

Happy holidays (happy holidays, happy holidays)
Happy holidays (happy holidays, happy holidays)

May the calendar keep bringing
Happy holidays to you

The first Noel, the angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night that was so deep

Noel, noel
Noel, noel
Born is the king of Israel

Little Jesus, sweetly sleep, do not stir
We will lend a coat of fur
We will rock you, rock you, rock you
We will rock you, rock you, rock you
See the fur to keep you warm
Snugly 'round your tiny form

O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep, the silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth, the everlasting light
The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight

Angels we have heard on high
Singing sweetly o'er the plains
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
