Lyrics

The lights that hang are glowing,
The cheer is overflowing,
The children pray it's snowing,
It's plain to see it's Christmas time.

Hear the sleighbells ringing,
And people carole-singing,
Feel the joy they're bringing,
Just because it's Christmas time.

Let's roll around and make some angels in the snow,
And stay outside until our face are aglow.
We'll say a warm hello to everyone we meet,
And smile at strangers as we pass them on the street,
Just because it's Christmas time

The kids get anxious waiting,
They're bundled up and skating,
Their laughter unabating,
All because it's Christmas time.

With tinsel everywhere,
And stockings hung with care,
The kids are all aware that soon it will be Christmas morning.

Let's roll around and make some angels in the snow,
And stay outside until our face are aglow.
We'll say a warm hello to everyone we meet,
And smile at strangers as we pass them on the street,
Just because it's Christmas time

There is some magic in the air this time of year,
That has the power to abolish anger, pain and fear.

Let's roll around and make some angels in the snow,
And stay outside until our face are aglow.
We'll say a warm hello to everyone we meet,
And smile at strangers as we pass them on the street,
Just because it's Christmas,
We'll smile at strangers as we pass them on the street,
Just because it's Christmas time.

Very infectious, catchy song - perfect little Christmas ditty.

I love the snow angel/faces are aglow word picture! It saves your song from being just another re-arrangement of holiday songs that seem to be re-writes of each other. Nice bridge! I like the part about smiling at strangers....we should do that all year long, not just at Christmas time.
