C H R I S T M A S

When I was but a youngster, Christmas meant one thing
That I'd be getting lots of toys that day
Then one cold December my moma sat me down
And taught me to spell Christmas this way.

C is for the Christ child born upon this day
H for herald angels in the night
R means our redeemer
I means Israel and
S is for the star that shone so bright
T is for three wise men, they who traveled far
M is for the manger where He lay
A is for all He stands for
S means Shepard's came.

And that's why there's a Christmas day.

A is for all He stands for
S means Shepard's came.

And that's why there's a Christmas day.

And that's why there's a Christmas day.,,
