Snow covered rooftops
Lights on the trees
The sound of singing
I hear down every street

Families have gathered
from miles away
Oh merry christmas
Its christmas day

You see that old tree
Down cotton lane
Those lights keep shining
Its always the same

We hear the church bells
Ring out to say
Oh merry christmas
Its christmas day
Oh merry christmas
Its christmas day

Swing the lights and hang the stockings
Decorate with green and red
Make the cookies for old santa
Made a runway for his sled

Singing carols on a sleighride
Gather round the manger scene
Open the presents and read the letter
And together we will sing

Oh merry christmas
Joy to the world
For every nation
For every boy and girl

Lets light a candle
For peace we pray
Oh merry christmas christmas
Its christmas day
Its christmas day
Its christmas day

Ohhhh
Lets light a candle
For peace we pray
Oh merry christmas
Its christmas day
Oh merry christmas
Its christmas day.
