BRIGHTEST TIME

 

At Christmas time

There is only one thing

Brighter than the Christmas lights

And that is the magical look

On a child’s face

Full of wonder and delight

CHRISTMAS PASSED

I miss my dad, I miss my mum

And my brother now he’s gone

But though we are forever apart

They live on still in my heart

Through every special memory

Of the time they shared with me

So although they have gone away

They will be with me on Christmas day

TWO THOUSAND YEARS HAVE PASSED

 

Two thousand years have passed

Since you died on that cross of pain

Dying for our salvation

Which began your holy reign

 

Two thousand years have passed

And when Christmas comes again

We will celebrate the day of you birth

Which began your holy reign

THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – JINGLE AROUND THE CLOCK (2018)

 

Elle Bennet (Brooke Nevin) decides to reunite her college friends for a special Christmas celebration, but her plans are thwarted by a work opportunity that she just can't pass up, namely spearheading the re-launch of a prestige Christmas campaign.

If she nails it, it will prove she's ready for a career-altering promotion.

The only fly in the ointment is that much to her surprise, she must team up with advertising campaign 'fixer' Max Turner (Michael Cassidy), and the pair prove to have very different takes on the Holidays.

But as Elle and Max work closely together, and learn more about each other's Christmas traditions, with the help of a little Christmas magic, they unexpectedly find themselves falling for each other.

So, all that remains in this charming film is for Elle to pull off the perfect Christmas reunion, successfully relaunch the campaign and find the love she's been searching for.

SANTA’S LITTLE HELPER

 

I’ve bought a special gift

For my Christmas honey

It’s a “Santa’s little helper” outfit

And it’s bloody horny

Its red velour with white fur trim

And matching lingerie

It’s figure hugging short and tight

And shows all you’d want to see

I’ve always liked sexy outfits

And this is the best I’ve seen

I’m sure that she will like it

Especially as it wipes clean

NORWEGIAN GIFT

 

A gift arrives each year

From across the sea

A gift from the people of Oslo

An annual gift of a Christmas tree

 

Given with gratitude

To stand in Trafalgar square

Received with pride

By those of us who care

 

A symbol of friendship

Given to us each Christmas

A token as a gift of thanks

Sent from Norway for us
