Mandisa Album

Candles burning low, lots of mistletoe
Lots of snow and ice everywhere we go
Choirs singing carols right outside my door

All these things and more
(All these things and more)
Now that's what Christmas means to me, my love
(That's what Christmas means to me, my love)

I see your smiling face like I never seen before
Even though I love you madly, it seems I love you more
The little cards you give me will touch my heart for sure

All these things and more, my darling
(All these things and more)
Oh, that's what Christmas means to me, my love
(That's what Christmas means to me, my love)

I feel like running wild
(Running wild)
As anxious as a little child
To push you 'neath the mistletoe
I kiss you once and then some more

Wish you a Merry Christmas, baby
(Wish you a Merry Christmas, baby)
And such happiness in the coming year

Let's deck the halls with holly, sing sweet ?Silent Night?
Fill a tree with the angel hair and pretty, pretty lights
Go to sleep and wake up just before daylight

All these things and more, baby
(All these things and more, baby)
That's what Christmas means to me, my love
(That's what Christmas means to me, my love)

That's what Christmas means to me, my love
(That's what Christmas means to me, my love)
Christmas, Christmas means to me
That?s what it means, that?s what it means

(That's what Christmas means to me, my love)
Deck the halls with balls of holly
?Tis the season to be jolly

That?s what, that?s what Christmas
(That's what Christmas means to me, my love)
That?s what Christmas means to me
(That's what Christmas means to me, my love)

I think of loved ones who?ve passed away
And I pray they?re resting in a better place
I think of memories of years gone by
And sometimes Christmas makes me cry

I think of soldiers across the sea
Sometimes I wonder why it?s them instead of me
But for my freedom they give their lives
And sometimes Christmas makes me cry

Tears of faithfulness, tears of hope
I cry tears of joy at Christmas because I know
There is peace on earth for every heart to find
And sometimes Christmas makes me cry

I think of family, I think of home
And say a prayer for those who spend this time alone
?Cause love can reach out into a silent night
And that?s why Christmas makes me cry

Tears of faithfulness, tears of hope
I cry tears of joy at Christmas because I know
There is peace on earth for every heart to find
And sometimes Christmas makes me cry

I think of Mary and the virgin birth
And I?m amazed by how much God thinks we are worth
That He would send His only Son to die
And sometimes Christmas makes me cry

Tears of faithfulness and tears of hope
I cry tears of joy at Christmas because I know
There is peace on earth for every heart to find
And sometimes Christmas makes me
Oh, sometimes Christmas makes me
Christmas makes me cry
Christmas makes me cry

O holy night
The stars are brightly shining
It is the night
Of our dear Savior?s birth

Long lay the world
In sin and error pining
?Til He appeared
And the soul felt its worth

A thrill of hope
The weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks
A new and glorious morn

Fall on your knees
Oh, hear the angel voices
Oh, night divine, oh, night when Christ was born
Oh, night divine, oh, night, oh, night divine

Truly He taught us
To love one another
His law is love
And His gospel is peace

Chains shall He break
For the slave is our brother
And in His name
All oppression shall cease

Sweet hymns of joy
In grateful chorus raise we
Let all within us
Praise His holy name

Fall on your knees
Don?t you hear the angel voices?
Oh, night divine

Oh, Christ is the Lord
Let?s praise His name forever
His power and glory evermore proclaim
Oh, night divine, oh, night when Christ was born
Oh, night divine

Snow covered rooftops, lights on the trees
The sound of singing I hear down every street
Families have gathered from miles away
Oh, Merry Christmas, it's Christmas day

You see that old tree down Cotton Lane
Those lights keep shining, it's always the same
We hear the church bells ring out to say
Oh, Merry Christmas, it's Christmas day
Oh, Merry Christmas, it's Christmas day

Swing the lights and hang the stockings
Decorate with green and red
Made the cookies for old Santa
Made a runway for his sled

Singing carols on a sleigh ride
Gather 'round the manger scene
Open presents, read the letters
And together we will sing

Oh, Merry Christmas, joy to the world
For every nation, for every boy and girl

Let's light a candle, for peace we pray
Oh, Merry Christmas, it's Christmas day
It's Christmas day, it's Christmas day, oh

Let's light a candle, for peace we pray
Oh, Merry Christmas, it's Christmas day
Oh, Merry Christmas, it's Christmas day, oh, ooh

Little drummer boy
Drummer boy, drummer boy
Little drummer boy
Drummer boy, drummer boy

Come they told me
Pa rum, pum, pum, pum
A new born King to see
Pa rum, pum, pum, pum

Our finest gifts we bring
Pa rum, pum, pum, pum
To lay before the King
Pa rum, pum, pum, pum
Rum, pum, pum, pum
Rum, pum, pum, pum

So to honor Him
Pa rum, pum, pum, pum
When we come

Baby, Jesu
Pa rum, pum, pum, pum
I am a poor boy too
Pa rum, pum, pum, pum

I have no gift to bring
Pa rum, pum, pum, pum
That's fit to give a king
Pa rum, pum, pum, pum
Rum, pum, pum, pum
Rum, pum, pum, pum

Shall I play for you
Pa rum, pum, pum, pum
On my drum?

Mary nodded
Pa rum, pum, pum, pum
The ox and lamb kept time
Pa rum, pum, pum, pum

I played my drum for Him
Pa rum, pum, pum, pum
I played my best for Him
Pa rum, pum, pum, pum
Rum, pum, pum, pum
Rum, pum, pum, pum

Then He smiled at me
Pa rum, pum, pum, pum
Me and my drum

Then He smiled at me
Pa rum, pum, pum, pum
Me and my drum

Little drummer boy
Drummer boy, drummer boy
Little drummer boy
Drummer boy, drummer boy

Little drummer boy
Little drummer boy
Drummer boy, drummer boy

Silent night, holy night, all is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace, sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night, holy night, shepherds quake at the sight
Glory stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia
Christ, the Saviour is born, Christ, the Saviour is born

Silent night, holy night, Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord at Thy birth, Jesus, Lord at Thy birth

Children, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?
I'm gonna send thee one by one
One for the little bitty, baby
Wrapped in swaddling clothing, lying in a manger
He was born, born, born in Bethlehem

Children, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?
I'm gonna send thee two by two
Two for Paul and Silas
One for the little bitty, baby
He was born, born, born in Bethlehem

Children, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?
I'm gonna send thee three by three

Three for the Hebrew children
Two for Paul and Silas
One for the little bitty, baby
He was born, born, born in Bethlehem

Children, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?
Well, I'm gonna send thee four by four
Four for the four that stood at the door

Three for the Hebrew children
Two for Paul and Silas
One for the little bitty, baby
He was born, born, born in Bethlehem, yeah

Born, born, born, born, born
Born, born, born, born
He was born, born, born, born, born
Born, born, born, born

Children, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?
I'm gonna send thee ten by ten
Ten for the ten commandments

Nine for the nine who saw the signs
Eight for the eight that stood at the gate
Seven for the seven that went up to heaven
Six for the six that never got fixed

Five for the gospel preachers
Four for the four that stood at the door
Three for the Hebrew children
Two for Paul and Silas

One for the little bitty, baby, oh
Yes, He was born, born
He was born, born, born in Bethlehem

He was born, He was born
He was born, He was born
Yes, He was, He was born
He was born

I said, He was born, He was born
He was born, oh, oh, oh, yeah
He was born, He was born
He was born

He was born, He was born
He was born, He was
He was born, He was born
He was

Long time ago in Bethlehem
So the Holy Nible say
Mary's boy child Jesus Christ
Was born on Christmas day

Hark now hear the angels sing
A new king born today
And man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day

Trumpets sound and angels sing
Listen what they say
That man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day

While shepherds watch their flock by night
They see a bright new shining star
Then hear a choir sing
The music seemed to come from afar

Now Joseph and his wife Mary
Come to Bethlehem that night
Then find no place to born the child
Not a single room was in sight

Hark now hear the angels sing
A new king born today
And man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day

Trumpets sound and angels sing
Listen what they say
That man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day

By and by they find a little nook
In a stable all forlorn
And in a manger cold and dark
Mary's little boy was born
