The Joy of Christmas-time

The Joy of Christmas-time

Holy night and holiday-time
Full of joy and ev'n a smile:
It's for grownups and each child
We all see a little Baby,
Down from heaven's gleam and awe.
He was born on manger straw.

Chorus:
He's the gift; He's your's and mine.
He's the joy of Christmas-time.

Let there be God's peace on earth and
Glory to increase on high:
Good and love is satisfied.
Let this sweet One's harmony play,
Playing strains men long have sought:
This is what the Child has brought.

(chorus)

In the manger, He sure stays put.
Smiling sweet with easy brow,
He will serve the angels, now.
We come to greet the Baby,
Giving gifts we set apart:
We're devoted with our heart.

(chorus)
