lyrics

Lyrics:

The bitter cold of December winds comes sweeping through the air
They won't blow that eternal flame of something so true and rare
Caroler's song sounds through the night and light up the atmosphere
So bow your head and thank the Lord that the time is drawing near

Shadows grow and night has seemed to swallow up the day
Light a candle, lean in close, and listen to what I say

Christmas time is here again, let's raise a cup of cheer
It's been so long, I can't believe we made it through this year
Surround yourself with the ones you love and sing all through the night
Christmas time is here again and everything's all right

Halls are decked with mistletoe and gifts under the tree
Cookies and milk for old Saint Nick at the foot of the chimney
Snowball fights then head inside where all you love's in sight
"It's a wonderful life," says George Bailey, and man I think he's right

Pretty soon that day will pass but let's not shed a tear
Take the love you feel today and make it last the year
