Proclaim the flyers
A season for laughing
A time for giving
We are celebrating
Because everyone is doing
But what is X'mas
Why is there cheer
Though everyone's merry
Isn't there worry
Broken homes
Overwhelming loans
Hangs in the air
With many other cares
Come, hear the true story
Listen, you tired and weary
A long time ago
In Bethlehem of old
Far out there in the cold
Some shepherds were told
By angels in the sky
Singing there on high
That somewhere here the Saviour lie
One day, in this world to die
So eagerly they came
Shepherds who were poor and faint
Seeking not riches gain
But a King who'd bear their pain
Searching high and low
They found Him not in gold
Bur where cattle low
O, joy that filled their soul
Giving Him their adoration
Their hearts and acclamation
They rose with jubilation
And left, His Name in declaration
For into their hearts He came
And there to rule and reign
O, the joy they'd gain
No earthly words explain
So hear, all you people
Hearken, all you hearers
For this is CHRISTmas
The birth of Jesus
Our reason for praising
Our purpose for rejoicing
So let CHRISTmas this year
Be filled with cheer
No earthly pleasure compare
To His love and care
As He brings you joy
In all your toil
So, come let us share and sing
The Joy of CHRISTmas Jesus brings
