My mother told us this song when I was growing up.
This song’s lyrics are a reminder of the true spirit and meaning of why we celebrate Christmas. It’s not about some man in a red suit and flying reigndeer.
Please, take a moment and read the lyrics. Maybe, read them on Christmas morning to your children, visitors. Keep this meaning and spirit all through the year of 2019.
“C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-S”
“C” is for the Christ Child born upon this day;
“H” for herald angels in the night.
“R” means our Redeemer;
“I” means Israel;
“S” is for the star that shone so bright.
“T” is for the three wise men,
They who travelled far.
“M” is for the manger where He lay.
“A” is for all He stands for;
“S” means shepherds came,
And that’s why there’s a Christmas Day.
“H” for herald angels in the night.
“R” means our Redeemer;
“I” means Israel;
“S” is for the star that shone so bright.
“T” is for the three wise men,
They who travelled far.
“M” is for the manger where He lay.
“A” is for all He stands for;
“S” means shepherds came,
And that’s why there’s a Christmas Day.
“T” is for the three wise men,
They who travelled far.
“M” is for the manger where He lay.
“A” is for all He stands for;
“S” means shepherds came,
And that’s why there’s a Christmas Day.
And that’s why there’s a Christmas Day…
