There's
music of the holidays
Playing on the radio -
There's Christmas decorations
Almost everywhere you go.
The Salvation Army bells
Ring out for the poor -
The "Ho,ho." of Santa Claus
In the department stores.
Carolers sing Christmas songs -
Going, house to house -
Places where no one stirs
Not even, a mouse.
Hoof prints in fresh fallen snow
Pulling, an open sleigh -
Children asking Mom and Dad
"Is Santa on his way?"
Cracklin' from the fireplace -
Roasting chestnuts 'neath the coals -
The soft murmur of prayers
Said, for the lost souls.
Friends and family gather 'round
A magic time of year -
There's sounds of angels singing
If, you really want to hear.
The sounds of Christmas, fill the air
As we celebrate His birth -
Wishing joy, to all mankind
And peace to all on earth.
