Christmas Is My Favorite Time of Year
How wise the wise men must have been
To find the child in Bethlehem
He lives again and draws us near
Christmas time is here
A tale of love that never dies
The laughter in the children’s eyes
The child in me is always there
Christmas is my favorite time of year
The mist of wonder lies under my tree
The gift of memories is waiting for me
The day will come and soon depart
The spirit stays to hear my heart
With love for people everywhere
Christmas is my favorite time of the year
Christmas is my favorite time of the year
