Lyrics
The spirit of Christmas
© 2010 Bruce Mills (SOCAN/BMI)
© 2012 Bruce Mills (new release / arrangement)
Snow flakes and angels and stars in the sky on a cold winter night
And reindeer up on the rooftop and lights shining bright on the tree
And choirs singing the carols and church bells ringing down over the hill
The holly and the ivy and a candle to find your way home
Chorus:
It's the spirit of Christmas
In all the old familiar ways
That fills the heart with love and happiness
Every year, every year, every year - what a special day!
Stockings hung by the fireplace - mistletoe above the doorway
The children are all laughing and family coming from away
Wood smoke from the chimney tops; moonlight in snow like crystals
And presents and dinner and holiday cheer and songs playing on the radio
Chorus:
It's the spirit of Christmas
In many old familiar ways
That fills the heart with love and happiness
Every year when it's Christmas day
Every year, everywhere, everybody - when it's Christmas day
Oh, I wish the spirit of Christmas
That comes today would come tomorrow
And come again each and every single night
And all around the world
Every boy and girl is filled
With happiness and light
Snow flakes and angels and stars in the sky on a cold winter night
And reindeer up on the rooftop and lights shining bright on the tree
Let the presents we give be for everyone
Let the joy and peace go everywhere
Let the spirit of Christmas - bring us love
