Twas the Night before Christmas Poem. Clement Clarke Moore (1779 – 1863) wrote the poem Twas the night before Christmas also called \u201cA Visit from St. Nicholas” in 1822. It is now the tradition in many American families to read the poem every Christmas Eve.<\/span><\/p>\n

The poem ‘Twas the night before Christmas’ has redefined our image of Christmas and Santa Claus. Prior to the creation of the story of ‘Twas the night before Christmas’ St. Nicholas, the patron saint of children, had never been associated with a sleigh or reindeers!<\/span><\/p>\n

Clement Moore, the author of the poem Twas the night before Christmas, was a reticent man and it is believed that a family friend, Miss H. Butler, sent a copy of the poem to the New York Sentinel who published the poem. The condition of publication was that the author of Twas the night before Christmas was to remain anonymous.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Merry<\/a>Twas the Night before Christmas Poem<\/span><\/p>\n

Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house<\/span>
\n Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.<\/span>
\n The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,<\/span>
\n In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there.<\/span><\/p>\n

The children were nestled all snug in their beds,<\/span>
\n While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads.<\/span>
\n And mamma in her \u2018kerchief, and I in my cap,<\/span>
\n Had just settled our brains for a long winter\u2019s nap.<\/span><\/p>\n

When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,<\/span>
\n I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.<\/span>
\n Away to the window I flew like a flash,<\/span>
\n Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.<\/span><\/p>\n

The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow<\/span>
\n Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below.<\/span>
\n When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,<\/span>
\n But a miniature sleigh, and eight tinny reindeer.<\/span><\/p>\n

With a little old driver, so lively and quick,<\/span>
\n I knew in a moment it must be St Nick.<\/span>
\n More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,<\/span>
\n And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name!<\/span><\/p>\n

“Now Dasher! now, Dancer! now, Prancer and Vixen!<\/span>
\n On, Comet! On, Cupid! on, on Donner and Blitzen!<\/span>
\n To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall!<\/span>
\n Now dash away! Dash away! Dash away all!”<\/span><\/p>\n

As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,<\/span>
\n When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky.<\/span>
\n So up to the house-top the coursers they flew,<\/span>
\n With the sleigh full of Toys, and St Nicholas too.<\/span><\/p>\n

And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof<\/span>
\n The prancing and pawing of each little hoof.<\/span>
\n As I drew in my head, and was turning around,<\/span>
\n Down the chimney St Nicholas came with a bound.<\/span><\/p>\n

He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot,<\/span>
\n And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot.<\/span>
\n A bundle of Toys he had flung on his back,<\/span>
\n And he looked like a peddler, just opening his pack.<\/span><\/p>\n

His eyes-how they twinkled! his dimples how merry!<\/span>
\n His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!<\/span>
\n His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow,<\/span>
\n And the beard of his chin was as white as the snow.<\/span><\/p>\n

The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth,<\/span>
\n And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath.<\/span>
\n He had a broad face and a little round belly,<\/span>
\n That shook when he laughed, like a bowlful of jelly!<\/span><\/p>\n

He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf,<\/span>
\n And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself!<\/span>
\n A wink of his eye and a twist of his head,<\/span>
\n Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread.<\/span><\/p>\n

He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,<\/span>
\n And filled all the stockings, then turned with a jerk.<\/span>
\n And laying his finger aside of his nose,<\/span>
\n And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose!<\/span><\/p>\n

He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,<\/span>
\n And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.<\/span>
\n But I heard him exclaim, \u2018ere he drove out of sight,<\/span>
\n “Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!”<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Merry<\/a>Silent Night<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Silent night! holy night!<\/span>
\n All is calm, all is bright<\/span>
\n round yon virgin mother and child,<\/span>
\n Holy infant so tender and mild,<\/span>
\n sleep in heavenly peace!<\/span><\/p>\n

Silent night! holy night!<\/span>
\n Shepherds quake at the sight;<\/span>
\n glories stream from heaven afar,<\/span>
\n heavenly hosts sing Alleluia,<\/span>
\n Christ, the Saviour, is born!<\/span><\/p>\n

Silent night! holy night!<\/span>
\n Son of God, love’s pure light<\/span>
\n radiant beams from thy holy face,<\/span>
\n with the dawn of redeeming grace,<\/span>
\n Jesus, Lord at thy birth.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Merry<\/a>All I Want For Christmas<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Everybody stops<\/span>
\n and stares at me<\/span>
\n These two teeth are<\/span>
\n gone as you can see<\/span>
\n I don’t know just who<\/span>
\n to blame for this catastrophe!<\/span>
\n But my one wish on Christmas Eve<\/span>
\n is as plain as it can be!<\/span><\/p>\n

All I want for Christmas<\/span>
\n is my two front teeth,<\/span>
\n my two front teeth,<\/span>
\n see my two front teeth!<\/span><\/p>\n

Gee, if I could only<\/span>
\n have my two front teeth,<\/span>
\n then I could be with you<\/span>
\n “Merry Christmas.”<\/span>
\n It seems so long since I could say,<\/span>
\n “Sister Susie sitting on a thistle!”<\/span><\/p>\n

Gosh oh gee, how happy I’d be,<\/span>
\n if I could only whistle (thhhh)<\/span><\/p>\n

All I want for Christmas<\/span>
\n is my two front teeth,<\/span>
\n my two front teeth,<\/span>
\n see my two front teeth.<\/span>
\n Gee, if I could only<\/span>
\n have my two front teeth,<\/span>
\n then I could wish you<\/span>
\n “Merry Christmas.”<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Merry<\/a>Frosty The Snowman<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul<\/span>
\n With a corncob pipe and a button nose<\/span>
\n and two eyes made out of coal<\/span><\/p>\n

Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale they say<\/span>
\n He was made of snow but the children<\/span>
\n know how he came to life one day<\/span>
\n There must have been some magic in that<\/span>
\n old silk hat they found<\/span>
\n For when they placed it on his head<\/span>
\n he began to dance around<\/span><\/p>\n

Frosty the snowman<\/span>
\n was alive as he could be<\/span>
\n And the children say he could laugh<\/span>
\n and play just the same as you and me<\/span>
\n Thumpetty thump thump<\/span>
\n thumpety thump thump<\/span>
\n Look at Frosty go<\/span>
\n Thumpetty thump thump<\/span>
\n thumpety thump thump<\/span>
\n Over the hills of snow<\/span><\/p>\n

Frosty the snowman knew<\/span>
\n the sun was hot that day<\/span>
\n So he said<\/span>
\n “Let’s run and<\/span>
\n we’ll have some fun<\/span>
\n now before I melt away”<\/span>
\n Down to the village<\/span>
\n with a broomstick in his hand<\/span>
\n Running here and there all<\/span>
\n around the square saying<\/span>
\n Catch me if you can<\/span>
\n He led them down the streets of town<\/span>
\n right to the traffic cop<\/span>
\n And he only paused a moment when<\/span>
\n he heard him holler “Stop!”<\/span><\/p>\n

For Frosty the snow man<\/span>
\n had to hurry on his way<\/span>
\n But he waved goodbye saying<\/span>
\n “Don’t you cry<\/span>
\n I’ll be back again some day”<\/span>
\n Thumpetty thump thump<\/span>
\n thumpety thump thump<\/span>
\n Look at Frosty go<\/span>
\n Thumpetty thump thump<\/span>
\n thumpety thump thump<\/span>
\n Over the hills of snow<\/span><\/p>\n

Jingle Bells<\/span><\/p>\n

Dashing through the snow<\/span>
\n In a one-horse open sleigh<\/span>
\n Through the fields we go<\/span>
\n Laughing all the way.<\/span>
\n Bells on bob-tail ring<\/span>
\n Making spirits bright<\/span>
\n What fun it is to ride and sing<\/span>
\n A sleighing song tonight.<\/span><\/p>\n

chorus: Jingle bells, jingle bells<\/span>
\n Jingle all the way,<\/span>
\n Oh what fun it is to ride<\/span>
\n In a one-horse open sleigh, O<\/span>
\n Jingle bells, jingle bells<\/span>
\n Jingle all the way,<\/span>
\n Oh what fun it is to ride<\/span>
\n In a one-horse open sleigh.<\/span><\/p>\n

A day or two ago<\/span>
\n I thought I’d take a ride<\/span>
\n And soon Miss Fanny Bright<\/span>
\n Was seated by my side;<\/span>
\n The horse was lean and lank<\/span>
\n Misfortune seemed his lot,<\/span>
\n We ran into a drifted bank<\/span>
\n And there we got upsot.<\/span><\/p>\n

A day or two ago<\/span>
\n The story I must tell<\/span>
\n I went out on the snow<\/span>
\n And on my back I fell;<\/span>
\n A gent was riding by<\/span>
\n In a one-horse open sleigh<\/span>
\n He laughed at me as<\/span>
\n I there sprawling laid<\/span>
\n But quickly drove away.<\/span><\/p>\n

Now the ground is white,<\/span>
\n Go it while you’re young,<\/span>
\n Take the girls along<\/span>
\n And sing this sleighing song.<\/span>
\n Just bet a bob-tailed bay,<\/span>
\n Two-forty as his speed,<\/span>
\n Hitch him to an open sleigh<\/span>
\n and crack! You’ll take the lead.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Merry<\/a>I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day<\/span><\/p>\n

I heard the bells on Christmas day<\/span>
\nTheir old familiar carols play<\/span>
\nAnd mild and sweet the words repeat,<\/span>
\nOf peace on earth, good will to men.<\/span><\/p>\n

I thought how as the day had come,<\/span>
\nThe belfries of all Christendom<\/span>
\nHad roll’d along th’ unbroken song<\/span>
\nOf peace on earth, good will to men.<\/span><\/p>\n

And in despair I bow’d my head:<\/span>
\n“There is no peace on earth,” I said,<\/span>
\n“For hate is strong, and mocks the song<\/span>
\nOf peace on earth, good will to men.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:<\/span>
\n“God is not dead, nor doth He sleep;<\/span>
\nThe wrong shall fail, the right prevail,<\/span>
\nWith peace on earth, good will to men.”<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Til ringing, singing on its way,<\/span>
\nThe world revolved from night to day,<\/span>
\nA voice, a chime, a chant sublime,<\/span>
\nOf peace on earth, good will to men!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Merry<\/a>Jolly Old Saint Nicholas<\/span><\/p>\n

Jolly old Saint Nicholas,<\/span>

\nChristmas Eve is coming soon;<\/span>
\nNow, you dear old man,<\/span>
\nWhisper what you’ll bring to me;<\/span>
\nTell me if you can.<\/span><\/p>\n

When the clock is striking twelve,<\/span>
\nWhen I’m fast asleep,<\/span>
\nDown the chimney broad and black,<\/span>
\nWith your pack you’ll creep;<\/span>
\nAll the stockings you will find<\/span>
\nHanging in a row;<\/span>
\nMine will be the shortest one,<\/span>
\nYou’ll be sure to know.<\/span><\/p>\n

\nNellie wants a story book;<\/span>
