When i was but a youngster

Christmas meant one thing

That i'd be getting lots

Of toys that day

I learned a whole lot different

When mother set me down

And taught me to spell

Christmas this way

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 three wise men

They who travelled far

M is for the manger where he lay

A's 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
