They're hanging all the lights on the main street square
People are smiling everywhere
Trees up in the windows
Frost on the glass
Christmas is here now
Here at last
But let's not forget
In the middle of the busy-ness
Remember this
Jesus is the reason for
This time of the year
We're gonna celebrate
It's Christmas
Oh, let me hear
That joyful noise in the air
Wanna hear it everywhere
Heaven and Earth proclaim
Come on let's celebrate
It's Christmas
Pull out your favorite records
Some Nat King Cole
Those old Christmas movies
They never get old
Gather up the family
Carol the town
People need love
So spread it around
And let's not forget
It's what you give not what you get
Remember this
Jesus I the reason for
This time of the year
We're gonna celebrate
It's Christmas
Oh, let me hear
That joyful noise in the air
Wanna hear it everywhere
Heaven and Earth proclaim
Come on let's celebrate
It's Christmas
Go tell it on the mountain
Heaven and Earth proclaim
Come on, let's celebrate
Go and tell it on the mountain
Jesus the Savior's born
He is the reason for
This time of the year
We're gonna celebrate
We're gonna celebrate
It's Christmas
This time of the year
We're gonna celebrate
It's Christmas
Oh, let me hear
That joyful noise in the air
Wanna hear it everywhere
Heaven and Earth proclaim
Jesus is the reason for
Christmas
Let's celebrate
Let's celebrate
Come on let's celebrate
It's Christmas
