What is the spirit of Christmas?
It is the celebration of the birth of the Christ Child
This we must never forget
Oh, this we must never forget
But there are other little things too
Yes, there are other little things too
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos
Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight
They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly
And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to 92
Although it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you
Merry Christmas to you
To you
Merry Christmas, everybody, and a Happy New Year
To you
