It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas,Everywhere you go,Take a look in the five and ten,Glistening once again,With candy canes and silver lanes aglow,
Chorus It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas,Toys in every store,But the prettiest sight to see,Is the holly that will be,On your own front door
A pair of hop-along boots and a pistol that shoots,Is the wish of Barney and Ben,Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk,Is the hope of Janice and Jen,And mom and dad can hardly wait,For school to start again
ChorusIt’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas,Everywhere you go, There’s a tree in the Grand Hotel,One in the park as well,The sturdy kind that doesn’t mind the snow
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas,Soon the bells will start, And the thing that will make them ring, Is the carol that you sing, Right within your heart
ChorusIt’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas,Toys in every store ,But the prettiest sight to see,Is the holly that will be,On your own front door,Sure it’s Christmas once more
It 's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

In the spirit of reconciliation, the Cairns Regional Council acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respects to their elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island peoples.
2020 has been a very difficult year for everyone. With so many challenges, we are having to do many things a little differently including our annual Carols by Candlelight event.
Given COVID restrictions and all that means, we have created an online production titled Carols in Cairns to showcase the diversity of our community’s talent and the beauty of our region while celebrating the coming festive season. This special production will be broadcast on Council’s YouTube platform on Sunday 6 December from 6:30pm
As part of this online event, we want to ensure that you will be ready to switch on your Christmas Tree lights at home at about 6:40pm – the same time we will have a special guest turning on Council’s Christmas Tree in the CBD.
But don’t worry if you miss seeing Carols in Cairns that night – you will still be able to watch the show on Council’s You Tube platform and even share the link to all your family and friends who may live outside of Cairns. It’s our way of bringing families together when they are not here in Cairns.
Finally, on behalf of Cairns Regional Council, I’d like to wish everyone a happy and safe festive season, Christmas holidays and New Year Celebrations. Mayor Bob Manning

Angels we have heard on high,Sweetly singing o’er the plains,And the mountains in reply,Echoing their joyous strains

Gloria, in excelsis Deo,Gloria, in excelsis Deo
Shepherds, why this jubilee? Why your joyous strains prolong?What the gladsome tidings beWhich inspire your heavenly song?
Gloria, in excelsis Deo Gloria, in excelsis Deo

Ang pasko ay sumapitAng Pasko ay sumapitTayo ay mangagsiawitNg magagandang himigDahil sa Diyos ay pag-ibigNang si Kristo’y isilangMay tatlong haring nagsidalawAt ang bawat isaAy nagsipaghandog ng tanging alay
Bagong taon ay magbagong-buhayNang lumigaya ang ating bayanTayo’y magsikap upang makamtan natin ang kasaganahan
Tayo’y mangagsiawitHabang ang mundo’y tahimikAng araw ay sumapitSa sanggol na dulot ng langitTayo ay magmahalanAting sundin ang gintong aralAt magbuhat ngayon kahit hindi pasko ay magbigayan
Bagong taon ay magbagong-buhayNang lumigaya ang ating bayanTayo’y magsikap upang makamtan natin ang kasaganahan
Tayo’y mangagsiawitHabang ang mundo’y tahimikAng araw ay sumapitSa sanggol na dulot ng langitO let us sing to Glory, love and care for one another
Sing while the earth is quiet inpraise to the birth of the Holy Child
Sing while the earth is quiet inpraise to the birth of the Holy Child
Sing while the earth is quiet inpraise to the birth of the Holy Child

Faithful friends who are dear to us Gather near to us, once more
Through the years We all will be together If the fates allowSo hang a shining starUpon the highest bough A merry little Christmas now
Have yourself a merry little Christmas

O holy night, the stars are brightly shining, It is the night of the dear Saviour’s birth; Long lay the world in sin and error pining, ‘Till he appeared and the soul felt its worth. A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices, For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn;
ChorusFall on your knees, Oh hear the angel voices! O night divine! O night when Christ was born. O night, O holy night, O night divine.
Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming; With glowing hearts by his cradle we stand: So, led by light of a star sweetly gleaming, Here come the wise men from Orient land,The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger, In all our trials born to be our friend;
ChorusHe knows our need, To our weakness no stranger! Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend!Behold your King! your King! before him bend!
Truly He taught us to love one another; His law is Love and His gospel is Peace;Chains shall he break, for the slave is our brother,
And in his name all oppression shall cease,Sweet hymns of joy in grateful Chorus raise we; Let all within us praise his Holy name!
ChorusChrist is the Lord, then ever! ever praise we! His pow’r and glory, evermore proclaim!O night, O holy night, O night devine.”

What can I give Him,poor as I am?If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb; If I were a wise man, I would do my part; Yet, what can I give Him?I will give my heart.
Love came down at Christmas, Love so divine;Love was born at Christmas, Stars and angels gave the sign.
Love will be my token, Love my gift so fine.Yes, what can I give Him? Love, my gift so fine.
What can I give Him, poor as I am?If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb; If I were a wise man, I would do my part;Yet, what can I give Him?
I will give my heart.I will give my heart.”
