Big Christmas Sing-Along

Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum

Whether you sing in a choir or only ever sing in the shower, join in, have fun, and help fill this hall with the sound of Christmas!

If you would like to support this 123-year-old organ, there is a donation box located below the organ balcony in the main concourse. Every penny helps maintain the thousands of pipes and mechanical parts that make this organ sing!

Hark the Herald Angels Sing

1. 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.”

2. Christ, by highest heav’n adored,
   Christ, the everlasting Lord:
   Late in time behold Him come,
   Offspring of a virgin’s womb.
   Veiled in flesh the Godhead see,
   Hail th’ incarnate Deity!
   Pleased as man with man to dwell,
   Jesus our Immanuel.

3. Hail the heav’n-born Prince of Peace!
   Hail the Sun of righteousness
   Light and life to all He brings
   Ris’n with healing in His wings:
   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.

Silent Night

1.  Silent night! Holy night!
   All is calm, all is bright
   ’round yon virgin mother and child!
   Holy infant, so tender and mild,
   sleep in heavenly peace,
   sleep in heavenly peace.
   

2. Silent night! Holy night
   Shepherds quake at the sight.
   Glories stream from heaven afar,
   heav'nly hosts sing, “Alleluia!
   Christ the Savior is born!
   Christ the Savior is born!
   

3. Silent night! Holy night!
   Son of God, love’s pure light
   radiant beams from Thy holy face
   with the dawn of redeeming grace,
   Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth!
   Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth!

Away in a Manger

1. Away in a manger
   No crib for a bed
   The little Lord Jesus
   Laid down His sweet head
   The stars in the bright sky
   Looked down where He lay
   The little Lord Jesus
   Asleep on the hay
   

2. The cattle are lowing
   The Baby awakes
   But little Lord Jesus
   No crying He makes
   I love You, Lord Jesus
   Look down from the sky
   And stay by my side
   Until morning is nigh
   

3. Be near me, Lord Jesus
   I ask You to stay
   Close by me forever
   And love me I pray
   Bless all the dear children
   In Your tender care
   And fit us for heaven
   To live with You there

O Come All Ye Faithful

1. O come, all ye faithful, joyful and triumphant,
   O come ye, O come ye to Bethlehem!
   Come, and behold Him, born the King of angels!
   
   O come, let us adore Him;
   O come, let us adore Him;
   O come, let us adore Him, Christ, the Lord!
   

2. God of God, Light of Light,
   lo, He abhors not the virgin's womb;
   very God, begotten not created;
   

3. Sing, choirs of angels; sing in exultation;
   sing, all ye citizens of heav'n above!
   Glory to God, all glory in the highest!
   

4. Yea, Lord, we greet Thee, born this happy morning;
   Jesus, to Thee be all glory giv'n!
   Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing!

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
Had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it glows
All of the other reindeer
Used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Rudolph
Join in any reindeer games

Then one foggy Christmas Eve
Santa came to say
"Rudolph, with your nose so bright
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"

Then how the reindeer loved him
As they shouted out with glee
"Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
You'll go down in history!”

Repeat from the top!

White Christmas

I’m dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow

I’m dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white

I’m dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow

I’m dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white

Jingle Bells

1. Dashing through the snow
   In a one-horse open sleigh
   O'er the fields we go
   Laughing all the way (Ha ha ha)
   Bells on bobtail ring
   Making spirits bright
   What fun it is to ride and sing
   A sleighing song tonight
   
   Oh Jingle bells Jingle bells
   Jingle all the way
   Oh, what fun It is to ride
   In a one-horse open sleigh (hey!)
   Jingle bells Jingle bells
   Jingle all the way
   Oh, what fun It is to ride
   In a one-horse open sleigh!

2. Now the ground is white
   Go it while you're young
   Take the girls tonight
   Sing this sleighing song
   Get a bobtailed bay
   Two forty for his speed
   And hitch him to an open sleigh
   And you will take the lead
