All my heart this night rejoices
All the days of Christmas
Angels we have heard on high
Angels, from the realms of glory
The Annunciation

As with gladness men of old
Away in a manger

Had a pleasant walk to White Hall
Hail the blest morn! See the great Mediator

He’s got the whole world in His hand
His active little crutch was heard upon the floor
The holly and the ivy
Hush! my dear, lie still and slumber
Hymn on the morning of Christ’s nativity
I am the way
I heard the bells on Christmas Day
I hope to come to you soon, but I am writing these instructions

I sing of a maiden
I went to London with my wife, to celebrate Christmas-day
I woke after 7 and got up at 8
I’m dreaming of a white Christmas
