AUDIENCE CAROL: Silverbells., Livingston & Evans
(The audience is invited to sing!)
City sidewalks, busy sidewalk, dressed in holiday style,
In the air there's a feeling of Christmas.
Children laughing, people passing, meeting smile after smile,
And on every street corner you'll hear ...
[chorus]
Silver bells, silver bells. It's Christmas time in the city.
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring. Soon it will be Christmas day.
Strings of streetlights even stop lights blink a bright red and green,
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures.
Hear the snow crunch, see the kids rush, this is Santa's big scene,
And above all this bustle you'll hear ... [chorus]
White Christmas, Irving Berlin, arr. Sharon
Hark! The Herald Angels Sing, Felix Mendelssohn, arr. Forrest
