The air is vibrant, the people busy,
as the season of miracles draws so near.
The trees do sparkle, poinsettia's proclaim,
the One whose celebration we hold so dear.

Everywhere there is great anticipation,
it's the Spirit of joy and love spread around.
People respond with positive actions,
the laughter, the friendliness, all will be found.

Oh, for the wonder of childlike faith,
the little children who question and wait.
They sense the true meaning in one word,
JESUS, the baby, so precious, his birth date.

With the coming holiday season,
we stop at times to recall the marvelous sight.
The parents, the Kings, the shepherds,
most of all, Jesus Christ who brought us the Light.

It is time to reflect and be thankful,
to realize what this celebration is all about.
The birth of a child from God's own being,
bringing hope, love, faith, we should shout.

Hallelujah, Joy to the world!
He is born, the King of Kings.
This is what Christmas brings to us,
New life, can't you feel it, in everything.
