Lyrics
We have come to my favorite time of year
Let's celebrate the life we have right here
Just you be sure you go on believing
Jesus is the reason for the season
God sent us his son
That was Christmas Day
He showed us His love
Here's that special way
I know I am blessed
I'll just smile and say
Jesus is the reason
For the season
I will tell you the best place you can start
Now share the love you're feeling in your heart
Don't you forget when all is said and done
Jesus is the reason for the season
God sent us his son
That was Christmas Day
He showed us His love
Here's that special way
I know I am blessed
I'll just smile and say
Jesus is the reason
For the season
