To night the (C)stars shine for the (F)chil dren,

and light the (G)way for dreams to (C)fly.

To night our (Am(maj7))love comes (Am7)wrapped in (Dm7)rib bons,

the world is right and hopes are (C)high.

And from a (Am7)dark and frost ed (G)win ter; (F)dow a child ap (Esus)pears

to search the (Am)sky,

be cause it’s (Dm7)Christ mas, be cause it’s (Gsus)Christ mas.

To night be (C)longs to all the (F)chil dren,

to night their (G)joy rings through the (C)air.

And so we (Am(maj7))send our (Am7)ten der (Dm7)bless ings

to all the chil dren ev ’ry (C)where,

to see the (Am7)smiles and hear the (G)laugh ter; (F)dow a time to (Esus)give,

a time to (Am)share,

be cause it’s (Dm7)Christ mas, be cause it’s (Gsus)Christ mas.

(Ab)Christ mas for now and for (C)ev er, for all of the (D7sus)chil dren, (D7)and for the (F)chil (G)dren (F)in (G7)us (C)all.
