Away in a manger

Away in a manger, no crib for a bed,

The little Lord Jesus, Laid down His sweet head, The stars in the sky Looked down where He lay, The little Lord Jesus Asleep in the hay.

The cattle are lowing, The poor Baby wakes But little Lord Jesus,

No crying he makes

I love Thee Lord Jesus, Look down from the sky And stay by my cradle, Till morning is night

Be near me, Lord Jesus

I ask Thee to stay close by me forever

And love me, I pray.

Bless all the dear children

In Thy tender care

And take us to heaven

To live with Thee there.

We wish you a Merry Christmas

We wish you a Merry Christmas;

We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Good tidings to you wherever you are;

Good tidings for Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Oh, bring us a figgy pudding; Oh, bring us a figgy pudding;

Oh, bring us a figgy pudding and a cup of good cheer. Good tidings to you wherever you are;

Good tidings for Christmas and a Happy New Year.

We won't go until we've got some; We won't go until we've got some;

We won't go until we've got some, so bring some out here.

We wish you a Merry Christmas; We wish you a Merry Christmas;

We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Jingle bell rock

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock

Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring

Snowing and blowing up bushels of fun

Now the jingle hop has begun

Jingle bell jingle bell jingle bell rock

Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square In the frosty air

What a bright time it's the right time

To rock the night away Jingle bell time is a swell time To go gliding in a one-horse sleigh Giddy-up jingle horse

pick up your feet Jingle around the clock

Mix and a-mingle in the jingling feet That's the jingle bell

That's the jingle bell

That's the jingle bell rock

Jingle Bells

Dashing through the snow In a one-horse open sleigh; O'er the fields we go, Laughing all the way. Bells on bobtail ring, Making spirits bright;

What fun it is to ride and sing A sleighing song tonight.

Oh! jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way; Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh. Hey! jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way; Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh!

Language functions 1

Explanations

1 What are functions?

Language is usually divided up into the parts of its grammatical system. It is also possible to describe language according to what it is used for.

If I were you, I'd leave now.

Conditional 2 (Grammatical)

If I were you, I'd leave now.

Giving Advice (Function)

2 How do we choose what to say?

What we say can be influenced by the situation we are in, by the person we are talking to, and by what we are talking about.

Asking Permission - from a friend:

Is it all right if I use the phone?

Asking Permission - from the same person, but a more serious topic:

Do you think I could possibly phone Australia?

Asking Permission - from a stranger:

Do you mind if I open the window?

What we say can depend on whether we want to be polite or not, or on how we feel. Although there are no exact rules about what we should say in any situation, there are polite ways of speaking which are generally used when we talk to strangers, to people who have higher status, and when we are talking about sensitive topics.

3 This unit practises the following functions. (Others are practised in Unit 19.) The responses made are also included.

There may be other ways of expressing these functions which are not included in the activities.

Asking for and giving advice

Agreeing and disagreeing

Apologising

Complaining

Ending a conversation

Asking for and giving directions

Greeting

Asking how someone is

Asking for information
