Lyrics sample

Give a little love and share a little laughter:

It’s that special time of year.

Remember how the angels sang before the shepherds,

Overjoyed and full of cheer.

Give someone a smile and share a happy moment:

It’s that special time of year.

Remember how the shepherds danced before the manger,

Overjoyed and full of cheer.

Celebrate the gift of God’s Son.

Celebrate! The Promised One has come.

Celebrate! Watch the starry light.

Celebrate that first Christmas night.

Time to bring some hope and spread the joy around us!

It’s that special time of year...
