Christmas is Only Once a Year

Don’t you know that Christmas

Is filled with peaceful bliss?

White like a bunny’s fur

Christmas cookies

Making you want more

---

Christmas is filled with caroling

Never tiring perky singing

I know you heard that song

But I see you smiling

Why don’t you nod along?

---

May the children in orphanage be safe

But they no long have to wait

May the elderly in nursing homes

Not feel alone

---

When you decorate that Christmas tree

May every ornament be a blessing to see

Every fragile dream realized

It is snowing outside

Enjoy the snowflakes on your eyes

---

It is Christmas only once a year

So drink a cup of cheer

And give to the homeless

And give Santa your Christmas list
