Sir Christemas (Music: Tim Hunter; lyrics anon.)
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell.
Who is there that singeth so,
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell?
I am here, Sir Christemas.
Welcome, my lord Sir Christemas!
Welcome to us all, both more and less!
Come near, Nowell.
Dieu vous garde, beaux sieurs, tidings I you bring:
A maid hath borne a child full young,
The which causeth you for to sing:
No-well.
Christ is now born of a pure maid;
In an ox-stall he is laid,
Where-fore sing we all at a brayde:
No-well.
Buvez bien par toute la compagnie,
Make good cheer and be right merry,
And sing with us now joyfully:
No-well.
I am here, Sir Christemas.
Welcome, my lord Sir Christemas!
Welcome to us all, both more and less!
Come near, No-well.
I am here, Sir Christemas.
I am here, Sir Christemas.

Exchanging gifts , new people to meet

The year’s fadin’ fast , so Happy Yuletide

To every Man every Woman and Child
Cheers to you all and let’s be reconciled

THE WINTER KITTENS (FROM THE FOREST) (Music and words: Tim Hunter)
The Winter Kittens From the Forest
With you at Mid-Winter Time
The Winter Kittens From The Forest
Listening to New Year Chimes
Two little kittens, out in the forest
Sheltering from the storm
They’d lost their mother, they just had each other
To keep themselves safe and warm
For days we left food, small bits of fish
And then we found them, sat in the dish
And we brought them home, to be with their mother
Together at Mid-Winter time
Chorus
I hope that you listen, listen this winter
To this story I’ve told
For there are more kittens
Out in the Forest and they are all hungry and cold
So if you find a kitten, give it a home
So it won’t spend winter cold and alone
It will stay with you on long winter nights
Sleeping under your tree lights
The Winter Kittens From the Forest
With you at Mid-Winter Time
The Winter Kittens From The Forest
Listening to New Year Chimes

Wintersongs (Music and words: Tim Hunter)
Wintersongs when the nights are long
Wintersongs when the light has gone
When there’s darkness all around
And there’s only frozen ground
You can still gain comfort from the sounds
Of Wintersongs by the fireside
Sing Wintersongs bout the tears you cried
When it’s over there’ll be spring
When a new life will begin
Till the sun shines through, though we will have to song those
Wintersongs bring back the summer that’s gone
Wintersongs show us your power so strong
When the sun shines through
Are you’re no longer blue
Just remember when you had to sing all those
Songs all those Wintersongs
