Christmas getting close
It's now around the corner
Celebrate Baby Jesus
Trees glow bright
Shine with awesome lights
Folks shopping
Time for rejoicing
Think of others that got less
Christmas, time to give
Spread all thru Christmas more love
Spread during Christmas more joy
Spread this holiday more cheer
Keep your heart open
