Tonight the stars shine for the children

And light the way for dreams to fly

Tonight our love comes wrapped in ribbons

The world is right

And hopes are high

And from a dark

And frosted window

A child appears

To search the sky

Because it's Christmas

Because it's Christmas

Tonight belongs to all the children

Tonight their joy rings through the air

And so we send our tender blessings

To all the children everywhere

To see the smiles and hear the laughter

A time to give

A time to share

Because it's Christmas

For now and forever

For all of the children

And for the children in us all

Tonight belongs to all the children

Tonight their joy rings through the air

And so we send our tender blessings

To all the children everywhere

To see the smiles and hear the laughter

A time to give

A time to share

Because it's Christmas

For now and forever

For all of the children
