Verse 1

Snow covered rooftops, lights on the trees

The sound of singing I hear down every street

Families have gathered from miles away

Oh merry Christmas, it's Christmas day

Verse 2

You see that old tree down Cotton Lane

Those lights keep shining, it's always the same

We hear the church bells ring out to say

Oh merry Christmas, it's Christmas day

Oh merry Christmas, it's Christmas day

Chorus

String the lights and hang the stockings

Decorate with green and red

Made the cookies for ol' Santa

Made a runway for his sled

Singing carols on a sleigh ride

Gather 'round the manger scene

Open presents, read the letters

And together we will sing

Verse 3

Oh merry Christmas, joy to the world

For every nation, for every boy and girl

Let's light a candle, for peace we pray

Oh merry Christmas, it's Christmas day

Let's light a candle, for peace we pray

Oh merry Christmas, it's Christmas day

Oh merry Christmas, it's Christmas day
