The Sounds of Christmas

The snow is gently falling down, And a hush slowly quiets the countryside The fire crackles as it glows And the children all sing as they wait for the night. This is the sound, the quiet sound The joyful sound of Christmas This is the sound, the endless sound, The joyful sound of Christmas. The jingle bells hang on the door Foreshadowing magical nights in store The laughter echoes through the air As our loved ones are greeting each other with care. This is the sound, the precious sound The joyful sound of Christmas This is the sound, the endless sound, The joyful sound of Christmas. The angels sing, their anthems ring As the Child of Bethlehem comes this hour! The quiet peace of fears released As a heart is renewed by His saving pow'r. This is the sound, the holy sound The joyful sound of Christmas This is the sound, the endless sound, The joyful sound of Christmas.
