The Joys of Christma Medley - Harry Belafonte

The first good joy that Christmas brings it is the joy of one

To see the star of Bethlehem that shone on Mary’s Son

That shone on Mary’s son good friends, that shone on Mary’s Son

To see the star of Bethlehem, that shone on Mary’s son

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

The next good joy that Christmas brings it is the joy of two

When carols ring on Christmas day, to tell the tale anew

To tell the tale anew, good friends, to tell the tale anew

When carols ring on Christmas day, to tell the tale anew

Deck the halls with boughs of holly

Fa la la la la, la la la la

Tis the season to be jolly

Fa la la la la, la la la la

Don we now our gay apparel

Fa la la, la la la, la la la

Troll the ancient Yule tide carol

Fa la la la la, la la la la

The next good joy that Christmas brings it is the joy of three

Of wise men coming with their gifts, the holy child to see

The holy child to see good friends, the holy child to see

Of wise men coming with their gifts, the holy child to see

The next good joy that Christmas brings it is the joy of four

Of shepherds keeping watch that night, beside the stable door

Of shepherds keeping watch that night, beside the stable door

The First Noel, the Angels did say

Was to certain poor shepherds in fields where 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!

The bravest joy that Christmas brings it is the joy of five

The message of good will to men for ever kept alive

For ever kept alive good friends, for ever kept alive

The message of good will to men for ever kept alive
