o little town of bethlehem, how still we see thee lie above thy deep and dreamless sleep, the silent stars go by yet in thy dark streets shineth, the everlasting light the hopes and fears of all the years, are met in thee tonight. for christ is born of mary, and gathered all above while mortals sleep, the angels keep their watch of wondering love oh morning stars together, proclaim the holy birth and praises sing to god the king, and peace to men on earth. the hopes and fears of all the years, are met in thee tonight.

angels we have heard on high sweetly singing over the plains and the mountains in reply echoing their joyous strain. come to bethlehem and see christ whose birth the angels sing come adore on bended knee christ the lord the new born king. gloria, in excelsis deo. jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way. see him in a manger laid whom the choirs of angels praise mary, joseph lend your aid while our hearts in love we raise. gloria, in excelsis deo.

breath above hats and heavy winter coats, in search of tree to lie presents underneath. joy in the air, pine needles at our feet. christmas spirit is in us, and everyone else we meet. now, back inside setting fire to that place, the flames warm the air bringing color to our faces. cocoa by the fire, in our flannel pajamas. christmas spirit is in us, and everyone else we see. kids wake their parents up 'cause they've waited long enough for this day to come. it's christmas, christmas, christmas day once again. falling backwards in the snow bodies turn into angels saving us from our busy lives for just one day thank god for this holiday. it's christmas, christmas, christmas day once again. christmas spirit's inside us christmas spirit's inside of us and everyone else we meet.

this Christmas I'll do everything different I'll place you on top of my tree, and this will be love for now. there will be no stumbling down the steps when the night has shown it's darkness to try to spot a man in Red. I won't even sneak a peek at what's in my sock hanging above the fire. I made this journey solely to look up at you, and this will be love for now. and this will be love for now.

Silent Night 03:18
silent night, holy night all is calm, all is bright. round yon virgin, mother and child holy infant, so tender and mild. sleep in heavenly peace.
