Music Monday - Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

My first on Music Monday! My entry today opens an early Christmas celebration for all great things to rejoice for in life. "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" echoes my innermost thoughts and my thanks for all things. Truly everyday we can adapt the Christmas spirit. Enjoy!


HAVE YOURSELF A MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS


Have yourself a merry little Christmas, 
Let your heart be light 
From now on, our troubles will be out of sight 

Have yourself a merry little Christmas, 
Make the Yule-tide gay, 
From now on, our troubles will be miles away.

 Here we are as in olden days, 
Happy golden days of yore. 
Faithful friends who are dear to us
 Gather near to us once more. 

Through the years 
We all will be together, 
If the Fates allow 
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough. 
And have yourself A merry little Christmas now.

Go tell it on the mountain, over the hills and everywhere;
D                                A7             D
Go tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born.

      D                                  A                D
While shepherds kept their watching o'er silent flocks by night,
                                    A            A7
Behold throughout the heavens there shone a Holy Light.

D                           A                  D

    D                                   A            D
The shepherds feared and trembled when lo! Above the earth,
                               A                    A7
Rang out the angel chorus that hailed our Saviour's birth.

     D                     A                 D
Down in a lowly manger the humble Christ was born
                                    A                 A
And brought us God's salvation that blessed Christmas morn!

Go tell it on the mountain, over the hills and everywhere;

Go tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born.

Popular Christmas Songs - Silent Night (Stille Nacht)

Stille Nacht  (Silent Night, German version)
Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht, 
Alles schläft; einsam wacht
Nur das traute hochheilige Paar. 
Holder Knabe im lockigen Haar, 
Schlaf in himmlischer Ruh! 
Schlaf in himmlischer Ruh! 

Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht, 
Hirten erst kundgemacht
Durch der Engel Halleluja, 
Tönt es laut von fern und nah: 
Christ, der Retter ist da! 
Christ, der Retter ist da! 

Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht, 
Gottes Sohn, o wie lacht
Lieb' aus deinem göttlichen Mund
, Da uns schlägt die rettende Stund'. 
Christ, in deiner Geburt! 
Christ, in deiner Geburt!
