about

This was just for fun, don't try and be to nit picky with this project. I wanted it to be a little raw, thus why the piano tracks aren't perfect but are just 1 take going through it. Songs 5-8 of this EP were recorded in 2009, 4 years after the first 4 were recorded.

Track Name: I'll Be Home For Christmas
I'm dreaming tonight
Of a place I love
Even more then I usually do
And although I know
It's a long road back
I promise you

I'll be home for Christmas
You can count on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents under the tree
Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love light gleams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams
Track Name: Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on, our troubles will be out of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
From now on, our troubles will be miles away

Here we are, as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us
Once more

Through the years, we all will be together
If the fate allow
Hang a shining star above the highest bough
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now
Track Name: All is Well
All is well all is well
Angels and men rejoice
For tonight darkness fell
Into the dawn of love's light
Sing A-le
Sing Alleluia

All is well all is well
Let there be peace on earth
Christ is come go and tell
That He is in the manger
Sing A-le
Sing Alleluia

All is well all is well
Lift up your voice and sing
Born is now Emmanuel
Born is our Lord and Savior
Sing Alleluia
Sing Alleluia
All is well

Music: Michael W Smith
Lyrics: Wayne Kirkpatrick
Track Name: Silent Night
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

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

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

Jesus, Lord, came on a silent night
For you and I
Christ our Savior was born on a silent night
For you
For you and I
He came and died
He came and died
For you and I

Track Name: Baby It's Cold Outside
I really can't stay
(But baby it's cold outside)
I've got to go away
(But baby it's cold outside)
This evening has been
(Been hoping that you'd drop in)
So very nice
(I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice)

My mother will start to worry
(Beautiful what’s your hurry)
My father will be pacing the floor
(Listen to the fireplace roar)
So really I’d better scurry
(Beautiful please don't hurry)
But maybe just a half a drink more
(Put some records on while I pour)

The neighbors might faint
(Baby it's bad out there)
Say what's in this drink
(No cabs to be had out there)
I wish I knew how
(Your eyes are like starlight now)
To break this spell
(I’ll take your hat, your hair looks swell)

I ought to say "no, no, no sir"
(Mind if I move in closer)
At least I’m gonna say that I tried
(What’s the sense in hurtin' my pride)
I really can't stay
(Oh baby don't hold out)
Baby it's cold out side

I simply must go
(But baby it's cold outside)
The answer is no
(But baby it's cold outside)
Your welcome has been
(How lucky that you dropped in)
So nice and warm
(Look out the window at that storm)

My sister will be suspicious
(Gosh your lips look delicious)
My brother will be there at the door
(Waves upon the tropical shore)
My maiden aunts mind is vicious
(Gosh your lips are delicious)
But maybe just a cigarette more
(Never such a blizzard before)

I've gotta get home
(But baby you'd freeze out there)
Say lend me a coat
(It's up to your knees out there)
You've really been grand
(I thrill when you touch my hand)
But don't you see?
(How can you do this thing to me?)

There's bound to be talk tomorrow
(Think of my lifelong sorrow)
At least there will be plenty implied
(If you got pneumonia and died)
I really can't stay
(Get over that old out)
Baby it's cold outside

Baby it's cold outside
Baby it's cold outside
Baby it's cold outside
Baby it's cold, it's cold outside

Till you’re in my life
It’s cold outside
When you’re not
You’re not by my side it’s cold
Baby it’s cold, it’s cold outside

Track Name: Angels From the Realms of Glory
Angels, from the realms of glory
Wing your flight o'er all the earth
Ye, who sang creation's story
Now proclaim Messiah's birth
Come and worship
Come and worship
Worship Christ the newborn King

Shepherds, in the fields abiding
Watching o er your flocks by night
God with man is now residing
Yonder shines the infant light
Come and worship
Come and worship
Worship Christ the newborn King

Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo

Sages, leave your contemplations
Brighter visions beam afar
Seek the great desire of nations
Ye have seen his natal star
Come and worship
Come and worship
Worship Christ the newborn King

All creation, join in praising
God, the Father, Spirit, Son
Evermore your voices raising
To the eternal Three in One
Come and worship
Come and worship
Worship Christ the newborn King

Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Track Name: O Holy Night
O holy night the stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear savior's birth
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth

A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn

Fall on your knees O, hear the angels' voices
O night divine, O night when Christ was born
O night divine, O night, O night Divine

Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming
Here come the wise men from Orient land

The King of Kings, lay thus in lowly manger
In all our trials born to be our friend

He knows our need our weakness is no stranger
Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend
Behold your King, Before Him lowly bend

Truly He taught to love one another
His law is love and His gospel is peace
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother
And in His name all oppression shall cease

Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we
Let all within us praise His holy name

Christ is Lord! O praise His name forever
His power and glory evermore proclaim
His power and glory evermore proclaim

He knows our need, and hears our voice
So sing and fall on your knees, praise the King
Behold our King
He came to die for thee
Yeah, behold for He’s our King

Behold, He's our King
