Here's some more ideas I'm throwing out.
(Tune: While by my sheep I watched at Night) Climb mountain steep, creep up by night, Ringbearer small, we know your plight, how great our hope (great our hope) HOPE HOPE HOPE! (Second verse) Come from afar with three small friends, he now will take from us this sin!
Next tune: O Christmas Tree. O Numenor, O Numenor how fair was thine White Tree-ee.
Next: O Come All Ye Faithful. O Come All ye Swarthy, skilled fight-ers of Gonnn-dor, O come ye, o come ye to de-fend Helm's Deep.
Here's just the title...I'm not sure if I can make any/all of these work, really. O Little Town of Hobbiton.
Or how about (What Child is This?) What Man is this, this Aragorn? (Perhaps from a Boromir standpoint)
Okay, (Bring A Torch, Jenette Isabella) BRING a sword, Legolas and Gimli, BRING a sword Boromir's 'bout to fall.
(Ding-dong Merrily on High) Screaming Horribly On High...the Ringwraiths all are screaming.
(Go, Tell it on the Mountain) Go! Throw it off a mountain, travel the dark road to Mount DOOM
(Lo, How a Rose E'er blooming...no Orlando Bloom jokes here) Lo, how a hero's blooming...Samwise the gardner hath sprung.
That's all, and that's enough. Take a vote or something, but I don't know if I'll be able to make them fit to a total song or not. Oh! Here's my completed version for Away on a Dark Stair (Away in a Manger)
Away on a dark stair, no place for a bed,
The Little Ringbearer lay down his sweet head
That menace Smeagol came back with a plan
But nearly repented when he saw him with Sam
A change came o’er Gollum, an old thing became
His malice rescinded, his plan was his shame
Then Samwise awoke and shouted at him there
Then Frodo awakened there on that dark stair
Gollum’s plan so wicked was back in his mind
To lead the poor hobbits for Shelob to bind
But Frodo, heroic, pulled his Elven Light
And Shelob backed off not expecting a fight
I was going to continue, but I couldn't find a rhyme for "web", and I felt I should keep it to it's original three verses.
