Up and down the street tonight
There´s a Santa Claus at every light
Trees for sale on the corner lot
Waiting for a home

Everywhere across the land
Gifts are wrapped with loving hands
Around the world as children sleep
A star begins to glow
And somewhere, someone quietly explains
To a loved one what all this means

Two thousands years ago
The sky was bright with the Heavenly host
Peace on Earth good will towards men
Has been hangin´ in ever since
From that night and forevermore
Every man whether rich or poor
Will share the love, the hope, and joy
All because of a baby boy

When Christmas Day is finally here
And friends and family gather near
Memories shared from seasons past
And a little child will ask

The someone, somewhere will quietly explain
To a loved one what all this means

Two thousands years ago
The sky was bright with the Heavenly host
Peace on Earth good will towards men
Has been hangin´ in ever since
From that night and forevermore
Every man whether rich or poor
Will share the love, the hope, and joy
All because of a baby boy
