A Christmas Album

AMY GRANT( 艾美葛蘭特 ) A Christmas Album歌詞
1.Tennessee Christmas

Lyrics:Amy Grant/Gary Chapman
Music:Amy Grant/Gary Chapman

Come on weatherman
Give us a forecast snowy white
Can't you hear the prayers
Of every childlike heart tonight
Rockies are callin', Denver snow fallin'
Somebody said it's four feet deep
But it doesn't matter
Give me the laughter
I'm gonna choose to keep

Another tender Tennessee Christmas
The only Christmas for me
Where the love circles around us
Like the gifts around our tree
Well I know there's more snow up in Colorado
Than my roof will ever see
But a tender Tennessee Christmas
Is the only Christmas for me

Every now and then
I get a wanderin' urge to see
Maybe California, maybe tinsel town's for me
There's a parade there
We'd have it made there
Bring home a tan for New Year's Eve
Sure sounds exciting, awfully inviting
Still I think I'm gonna keep

Another tender Tennessee Christmas
The only Christmas for me
Where the love circles around us
Like the gifts around our tree
Well they say in L.A.
It's a warm holiday
It's the only place to be
But a tender Tennessee Christmas
Is the only Christmas for me.

(Instrumental Bridge)

Well I know there's more snow up in Colorado
Than my roof will ever see
But a tender Tennessee Christmas
Is the only Christmas for me

A tender Tennessee Christmas
Is the only Christmas for me


2.Hark! The Herald Angels Sing

Hark! The herald angels sing
Glory to the new born King
Peace on earth and mercy mild
God and sinners reconciled
Joyful all ye nations rise
Join the triumph of the skies
With angelic hosts proclaim
Christ is born in Bethlehem
With angelic hosts proclaim
Christ is born in Bethlehem

Mild He lays His glory by
Born that man no more may die
Born to raise the sons of Earth
Born to give them second birth
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see
Hail the incarnate deity
Pleased as man with men to dwell
Jesus our Immanuel
Pleased as man with men to dwell
Jesus our Immanuel

Hail the heaven born Prince of Peace
hail the Son of righteousness
Light and life to all He brings
Risen with healing in His wings
Christ the highest heaven adore
christ the everlasting Lord
Come desire of nations come
Fix in us Thy humble home

5.Little Town

Lyrics:Traditional
Music:C.Eaton

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

How silently, how silently
The wondrous gift is given
So God imparts to human hearts
We hear the Christmas angels
The great glad tidings tell
O come to us, abide with us
Our Lord Immanuel

No ear may hear His coming
But in this world of sin
Where meek souls will receive Him still
The dear Christ enters in.


6.Christmas Hymn

Lyrics:Amy Grant
Music:Michael W.Smith

Praise to God whose love was shown
Who sent his Son to earth
Jesus left his rightful throne
Became a man by birth

The virgin's baby son
All creation praised Him
God incarnate come
Come to Bethlehem

Still a higher call had He
Deliverance from our sins
Come to set all people free
From Satan's hold within

For by the sin of man we fell
By the Son of God
He crushed the power of hell
Death we fear no more

Now we stand with strength, with power
The sons of God on earth
Faithful to the final hour
Christ's righteousness our worth

And now all praise is given
For the babe, the Son
The Savior King is risen
Christ is Lord indeed

For the babe, the Son
The Savior King is risen
Christ is Lord indeed


7.Love Has Come

Lyrics:Amy Grant
Music:Shane Keister/Michael W.Smith

Hurry now wake up your eyes
Time for little ones to see
Daddy's got a big surprise
Hiding there beneath the Christmas tree
How they are like the child in me
See the wonder in their eyes
Like a fiarytale come true
One more time I realize
All the love our lives found in you

Love has come
For the world to know
As the wisemen knew
Such a long time ago
And I believe that the angels sang
That hope had begun
When the God of Glory
Who is full of mercy
Sent His Son

If I could have a special dream
Coming true on Christmas morn'
I would want the world to see
How His Father smiled when Christ was born
The greatest gift the world has known
So come on kids, look high and low
For all the toys you've dreamed to find
But I believe you'll never know
A greater joy than Jesus' love inside

Love has come
For the world to know
As the wisemen knew
Such a long time ago
And I believe that the angels sang
That hope had begun
When the God of Glory
Who is full of mercy
Sent His Son

(Repeat Chorus)


8.Sleigh Ride

Written:Parrish Anderson/L.Anderson

Just hear those sleigh bells jing-a-ling
Ring ting ting-a-ting too
C'mon it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you
Outside the snow is falling
And friends are calling you hoo
C'mon it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together

Giddy-up giddy-up giddy-up let's go
Let's look at the show
We're riding in a wonderland of snow
Giddy-up giddy-up giddy-up it's grand
Just holding your hand
We're riding along with a song
Of a wintery fairyland

Our cheeks are nice and rosy
And comfy cozy are we
We snuggle close together
Like two birds of a feather would be
Let's take that road before us
And sing a chorus or two
C'mon it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you

There's a birthday party
At the home of Farmer Grey
It'll be the perfect ending
Of a perfect day
We'll be singing the songs we love to sing
Without a single stop
At the fireplace where
We'll watch the chestnuts pop
Pop pop pop

There's a happy feeling
Nothing in this world can buy
When they pass around
The coffee and the pumpkin pie
It'll nearly be like
A picture print by Currier & lives
These wonderful things
Are the things
We remember all through our lives
These wonderful things
Are the things
We remember all through our lives

Sleigh bells jing-a-ling
Ring ting ting-a-ting too
C'mon it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you
Outside the snow is falling
And friends are calling you hoo
C'mon it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together

Giddy-up giddy-up giddy-up let's go
Let's look at the show
We're riding in a wonderland of snow
Giddy-up giddy-up giddy-up it's grand
Just holding your hand
We're riding along with a song
Of a wintery fairyland

Nice and rosy
And comfy cozy are we
We snuggle close together
Like two birds of a feather would be
Let's take that road before us
And sing a chorus or two
C'mon it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you

It's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you

Lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you

With you


9.The Christmas Song(Chestnut Roasting On An Open Fire)

Lyrics:Mel Torme/Robert Wells
Music:Mel Torme/Robert Wells

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like eskimos

Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Santa's on his way
He's bringing lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly
And so I'm offering this simple wish
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you

They know that Santa's on his way
He's bringing lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly
And so I'm offering this simple wish
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas to you


10.Heirlooms

Written:Bob Farrell/Brown Bannister/Amy Grant

Up in the attic
Down on my knees
Lifetimes of boxes
Timeless to me
Letters and photographs
Yellowed with years
Some bringing laughter
Some bringing tears

Time never changes T
he memories, the faces Of loved ones, who bring to me
All that I come from
And all that I live for
And all that I'm going to be My precious family
Is more than an heirloom to me

Wiseman and shepherds
Down on their knees
Bringing their treasures
To lay at his feet
Who was this wonder baby yet king
Living and dying He gave life to me

Time never changes
The memory, the moment His love first pierced through me
Telling all that I come from
And all that I live for
And all that I'm going to be My precious savior
Is more than an heirloom to me

My precious Jesus
Is more than an heirloom to me


11.A Mighty Fortress / Angels We Have Heard on High

Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o'er the plain
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strain

(Chorus) Gloria
In excellsis deo
Gloria
In excellsis deo

Come to Bethlehem and see
Him whose birth the angels sing
Come adore on bended knee
Christ, the Lord, the newborn King.

(Chorus) Gloria
In excellsis deo
Gloria
In excellsis deo
