more to this time of year
Than sleigh bells and holly,
Don't look inside a stocking
Don't look under the tree
The one thing we're looking for
Far more precious than silver
and more splendid than gold.
This is something to treasure,
but it's something we can't hold.
As long as it's Christmas,
that hope is the greatest
of the gifts we'll receive,
And though we may look different,
As long as, as Christmas,
that hope is the greatest
of the gifts we'll receive.
As long as it's Christmas,
As long as there's Christmas,
That hope is the greatest
of the gifts we'll receive
As long as our guiding star
There'll always be Christmas
So there always will be a time
when the world is filled with peace
