1.	Finally Christmas Day 04:06	lyrics	buy track
Finally Christmas Day words and music by Jaye Krebs A foot of snow, on icy roads, and a winter chill With a forecast of more on the way But I know it's gonna be worth all the Cold nights and snowfall When it's Finally Christmas day And all the streets fill up to greet the happy holidays In a joyfully noisy cascade Neighbourhoods are putting up lights now Each dark night more bright now Till it's Finally Christmas Day Our little house is shining out in its finery In a mantle of sparkle and lace Here to greet the children all grown up The whole family shows up When it's Finally Christmas Day And we'll toast to the memories of family and friends who have gone They are still in our thoughts and they still fill our hearts And we still hear them singing the old Christmas songs The hour hand is touching twelve and Christmas Eve is gone As the second hand sweeps it away By the fire we snuggle up close now While outside the snow falls Now it's Finally Christmas Day Now it's Finally Christmas Day
2.	God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen 04:38	lyrics	buy track
God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen -traditional God rest ye merry gentlemen, let nothing you dismay Remember Christ our Savior was born on Christmas Day To save us from temptation when we were gone astray. From God our heavenly Father, a holy angel came The shepherds saw the glory and heard the voice proclaim That Christ was born in Bethlehem and Jesus is his name Oh tidings of comfort and joy, Comfort and joy Oh tiding of comfort and joy The shepherds at these tidings rejoiced in heart and mind And on the darkened hillside they left their flocks behind Went to Bethlehem straightway the holy child to find There in Bethlehem, where Christ the infant lay They found him in a manger where oxen fed on hay Beside her newborn child, his mother knelt to pray Oh tidings of comfort and joy, Comfort and joy Oh tiding of comfort and joy Now with the world sing praises all people in this place with sacred love and fellowship, each other now embrace And let this Christmas Festival all bitterness displace Oh tidings of comfort and joy Oh tidings of comfort and joy Comfort and joy Oh tiding of comfort and joy

SKATING ROUND WITH YOU words and music ©Jaye Krebs Hand in hand we're gliding, over frozen diamonds In a winter's evening dream come true Our fingers intertwined Our frozen breath behind us As we fly beneath the crystal moon You do a pirouette I haven't learned it yet But I can learn before the night is through Anything is likely When you're here beside me I just want to skate around with you We pause a moment and we steal a kiss In hopes of warming up our frozen lips The hour's getting late But I just want to stay And spend the evening skating 'round with you Arm in arm we're flying Under velvet skies that shimmer with a million sparks of light Our hearts are intertwined Our troubles left behind us As we fall into each other's eyes Your arms around my waist We try a figure eight and try to show off to the evening stars It doesn't really work right Ending in a pile of laughter tangled in each other's arms As we lay beneath the diamond mist another pause another stolen kiss The hour's getting late but I just want to stay and Spend the evening skating 'round with you I wanna be skating around with you La la la la
