Lyrics[]
The child is a King, the carollers sing
The old has passed, there's new beginning
Dreams of Santa, dreams of snow
Fingers numb, faces aglow
It's Christmas time, mistletoe and wine
Children singing Christian rhyme
With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree
A time to rejoice in the good that we see
A time living, a time for believing
A time for trusting, not deceiving
Love and laughter and joy ever after
Ours for taking, just follow the master
Christmas time, mistletoe and wine
Children singing Christian rhyme
With logs on the fire bad gifts on the tree
A time to rejoice in the good that we see
(Silent night holy night)
It's a time for giving, a time for getting
A time for forgiving and for forgetting
Christmas is love, Christmas is peace
A time for hating and fighting to cease
Christmas time, mistletoe and wind
Children singing Christian rhyme
With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree
A time to rejoice in the good that we see
[repeated three more times]
