Third Grade Lyrics

Do-Re-Mi

Let's start at the very beginning
A very good place to start
When you read you begin with - A - B - C
When you sing you begin with DO - RE - MI
DO - RE - MI , DO - RE - MI
The first three notes just happen to be DO - RE - MI
DO - RE - MI
DO - RE - MI - FA - SO - LA - TI...
(Oh let's see if I can make this easier)
DO - a deer, a female deer
RE - a drop of golden sun
MI - a name, I call myself
FA - a long long way to run
SO - a needle pulling thread
LA - a note to follow SO
TI - a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to do oh oh oh
Doe! - a deer, a female deer
Ray! - a drop of golden sun
Me! - a name I call myself
Far! - a long long way to run
So! - a needle pulling thread
La! - a note to follow SO
Tea - a drink with jam and bread
That would bring us back to do!
A deer, a female deer
RE, a drop of golden sun
MI, a name, I call myself
FA, a long long way to run
SO, a needle pulling thread
LA, a note to follow SO
TI, a drink with jam and bread
That would bring us back to do...
DO - RE - MI - FA - SO - LA - TI - DO! - SO - DO! 

Autumn Vesper

Over wood and wold, over flood and fell,

Over flashing lake and gleaming dell,

The harvest moon looks down.

The harvest moon looks down.

And when heaven smiles with love and light,

And earth looks back so dazzling bright,

In such a scene, on such a night,

Earth’s children should not frown.

The harvest moon casts a magical glow,

Enchanting all the world below.

Bathed in a silvered shine, behold nature’s face divine.

And when heaven smiles with love and light,

And earth looks back so dazzling bright,

In such a scene, on such a night,

Earth’s children should not frown,

Earth’s children should not frown.

When the harvest moon looks down,

Earth’s children should not frown.

A Candle’s Light

A candle’s light

Is like no other light;

Its gleaming glow will warm the coldest night.

When winter’s day is fading into dark,

its gleaming flame will warm my very heart.

Into the flame my eyes do softly gaze;

It seems I cannot turn my eyes away.

For when I’m in the candle’s magic trance,

It draws me to its quiet mystic dance.

We gather round to share the candle’s light;

We talk and laugh into the witer night.

Each face aglow, reflecting golden beams,

preparing us for winter dreams.

Outside the snow I clinging to the trees,

The mighty pines are bending to their knees.

The wind is singing such a lonely tune,

And winter clouds now hide the winter moon.

We gather ‘round to share the candle’s light;

We talk and laugh into the winter night

Each face aglow, reflecting golden beams,

Preparing us for peaceful winter dreams,

For peaceful winter dreams,

A candle’s light.
