Christmas Time is Near

The lights are brightly glowing

Along every street we stroll,

And hearts are filled with happy thoughts

As peaceful church bells toll.

We watch the people scurry by

With smiles from ear to ear,

And love fills every corner because

Christmastime is near.

 

Happy sounds of sleigh bells ringing.

Down the Lane the voices singing

Bringing joy to people everywhere.

Praying hard for hope and healing.

Searching for that Christmas feeling,

One that lasts throughout the coming year.

 

The list keeps growing longer

Of things yet to be done.

But bustle brings a joyous beat

From dawn to setting sun.

The children’s best behavior

Is quite a nice surprise,

And Christmas morn we’ll gather all

The laughter in their eyes.

 

Happy sounds of sleigh bells ringing.

Down the Lane the voices singing

Bringing joy to people everywhere.

Praying hard for hope and healing.

Searching for that Christmas feeling,

One that lasts throughout the coming year

As love fills every corner because

Christmastime is near.
