Unit 8: FestivalsLESSON 3: READI/ Warm upII/ Pre - ReadingVocabulary:Christmas tree (n)Christmas Card (n)Christmas carol (n)Oh Little Town of Bethlehem O little town of Bethlehem, How still we see thee lie! Above thy deep and dreamless sleep The silent stars go by; Yet in thy dark streets Shineth The everlasting Light; The hopes and fears of all the years Are met in thee to-night. For Christ is born of Mary, And gathered all above, While mortals sleep, the angels keep Their watch of wondering love. O morning stars, together Proclaim the holy birth! And praises sing to God the King, I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day I heard the bells on Christmas Day Their old familiar carols play. And wild and sweet the words repeat Of Peace on earth, good will to men. I thought how as the day had come The belfries of all Christendom Had Roll'd along Th' unbroken song Of Peace on earth, good will to men.
