The Christmas Album

The first noel
The angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds
In fields where they lay
In fields where they
Lay keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night
That was so deep

Noel, noel, noel, noel
Born is the king of israel


They looked up
And saw a star
Shining in the east
Beyond them far
And to the earth
It gave great light
And so it continued both day and night


Noel, noel, noel, noel
Born is the king of israel


And let us all
With one accord
Sing praises to our heavenly lord
That hath in heaven and earth of nought
And with his blood mankind hath bought


Noel, noel, noel, noel
Born is the king of israel


Born is the king
Born is the king
Born is the king

When we come into this world
And we hunger for that touch
From the one that brought us life
From the one that gave so much

Innocence will take your hand
And speak though the one thought in your mind


Don't you know that love is all
Love is where we all begin
And when we knock on heaven's door
Only love will let us in


And as we gather to ourselves
A part of everything we see
We realize that what we own
Isn't what we really need


Innocence take my hand
And speak through the one thought in your mind


Don't you know that love is all
Love is where we all begin
And when we knock on heaven's door
Only love will let us in


Don't you know that love is all
Love is all that we must do
It is the reason why we live
Love is all i have for you


True love cannot be broken
Through all the tears and pain
Only one truth survives, only one truth remains


Don't you know that love is all
Love is where we all begin
And when we knock on heaven's door
Only love will let us in


Don't you know that love is all
Love is all that we must do
It is the reason why we live
Love is all i have for you


Don't you know that love is all
Love is where we all begin
And when we knock on heaven's door
Only love will let us in

I'm dreaming of a white christmas
Just like the ones i used to know
Where the tree tops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow

I'm dreaming of a white christmas
With every christmas card i write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your christmases be white


Where the tree tops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow


I'm dreaming of a white christmas
With every christmas card i write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your christmases be white

When you look to the past for life's long hidden meaning
For the dreams and the plans made in your youth
Does the thrill to achieve match the warm hidden feeling
That lies so still and lives in you

In the eyes of a child there is joy, there is laughter
There is hope, there is trust, a chance to shape the future
For the lessons of life there is no better teacher
Than the look in the eyes of a child


You've found the place to walk the path you've chosen
You'll never miss the world you've left behind
When life gives life, it's happiness unbroken
When you give love, it's love you'll find


In the eyes of a child there is joy, there is laughter
There is hope, there is trust, a chance to shape the future
For the lessons of life there is no better teacher
Than the look in the eyes of a child


In the eyes of a child there is joy, there is laughter
There is hope, there is trust, a chance to shape the future
For the lessons of life there is no better teacher
Than the look in the eyes of a child


In the eyes of a child there is joy, there is laughter
There is hope, there is trust, a chance to shape the future
For the lessons of life there is no better teacher
Than the look in the eyes of a child

Sleigh bells ring, are you listenin'
In the lane, snow is glistenin'
A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland

Gone away is the bluebird
Here to stay is a new bird
He sings a love song, as we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland


In the meadow we can build a snowman
Then pretend that he is parson brown
He'll say are you married, we'll say no man
But you can do the job when you're in town


Later on we'll conspire, as we dream by the fire
To face unafraid, the plans that we made
Walking in a winter wonderland


In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he's a circus clown
We'll have lots of fun with mr. snowman
Until the other kids knock him down


When it snows, ain't it thrillin'
Though your nose gets chillin'
We'll frolic and play the eskimo way


Walking in a winter wonderland
Walking in a winter wonderland
Walking in a winter wonderland
