Colored lights on snowy nights With tinsel everywhere Such delights to see the sights There’s Christmas in the air A Christmas tree for all to see By stockings hung with care Families meet to warmly greet There’s Christmas in the air Friends all laugh and drink a quaff A yuletide toast they share Carolers sing and bells will ring There’s Christmas in the air Far away on Christmas day Just swaddling clothes to wear A savior’s birth to bless the earth T’was Christmas in the air Songs of love from up above The angels came to bear A joyous word the shepherds heard T’was Christmas in the air A star shone bright that holy night To lead the shepherds there They knelt in awe, the babe they saw T’was Christmas in the air Wise men came to praise his name With gifts of love to bear Filled with joy from the baby boy T’was Christmas in the air So at this time when church bells chime And people kneel in prayer Please revere that babe so dear It’s Christmas in the air |

How beautiful this is!! And what a wonderful reminder that the season isn't about finding the perfect gift - for we received that over 2000 years ago. |
