I love the smell of Christmas and
Winter was a perfect time to give love.
From our abundance
Let's join God to make a toast today.

1.
I've been listening to Carols and church bells
The preacher talked about what happened the night before Christmas
He said love was born
And three men followed the star to offer Gold Myrrh and Frankincense.
I've been reading a Bible story
About the immaculate conception
And the birth of God the son.
2.
Winter was a perfect time to give love.
When the weather was cold like the heart of man
And the night dark like the sins on the soil
Heaven sent a shepherd King to a manger.
Winter was a perfect time to give love.
When his children had wandered off the path he choosed
And lies became a cloud of darkness over his creations
He sent the way, truth and life.
Winter was a perfect time to give love.
When the blizzard of nemesis ravaged mankind
And was shredding it's essence in an icy storm
The creator of nature sent the one who could calm storms.
Winter was a perfect time to give love.
3.
I love the smell of Christmas
The spicy aroma that spreads across the table
And the thrilling scents of celebration
Every moment of this day, stays a memory until forever.
I love the sound of Christmas
The melodies from the carols and bangs of fire works.
The chattering and laughter of a people sharing meals, wine and love.
Every moment of this day, stays a memory until forever.
4.
While we eat and drink from our abundance
And dance to best music
Let's remember the lone child on the street
And spare a meal or more.
Celebrate love by spreading love.
While we decorate our Christmas trees and homes
With lights and gifts for the season
Let's remember our penniless neighbors
And spare a light bulb or a gift pack.
Sharing the glow and wealth won't make you dim and poor.
Celebrate love by spreading love.
5.
Join God to make a toast today
In memory of the beginning
Of a new covenant with mankind.
Join the Angels and your church choir
To sing carols and hymns for him
The one called Messiah is born.
.
.
I love the smell of Christmas and
Winter was a perfect time to give love.
From our abundance
Let's join God to make a toast today.
