The red of the holly
The green of the leaf
And the smell
Of sweet fresh pine
The laughter and folly
The joy and belief
And the promise in eyes
That shine
These are some
Of the things
That an old fashioned
Christmas brings
These are some of the joys
And the songs
And the smiles
And the noise
The red of the berry
The white of the snow
And the lights
Of one bright star
The singer so merry
The fire aglow
And the homecoming
From afar
These are some
Of the things
That a jolly old
Christmas brings
These and the light
From above
And love love love
The tinkling of bells
And our hearts are beguiled
By a story that tells
Of a mother and child
And the lure of the pure
And the undefiled
And love sweet love
These are some
Of the things
That a jolly old
Christmas brings
These and the light
From above
And love sweet love
The tinkling of bells
And our hearts are beguiled
By a story that tells
Of a mother and child
And the lure of the pure
And the undefiled
And love sweet love
