Lyrics

As (C)fall rides off in the sun set, I sweep the snow from my door step. I (F)just can’t help but stop and grin; it’s like I’m ten years old a gain. And ev ’ry where I go, I can feel it. Some say it moves like a spir it. It falls on us once a year, like it came on a mid night clear. The soul of this (F)sea son is a gift when love came (G)down to let us live. Let’s o pen up and let our (C)hearts em brace this mo ment. For Christ mas this year, we’re gon na make a sound, gon na make it loud. For (F)Christ mas this year, we’re gon na make some noise, let the world re joice. For (Dm)Christ mas this year, for (F)Christ mas, for Christ mas this (C)year. And the (CN.C.)laugh ter starts be fore the sun rise. I (C)sneak down stairs to spar kl ing eyes. And (F)oh, what joy it brings to me, the fam ’ly a round our Christ mas tree. And I thank the Lord for His fa vor as we sing the songs of the Sav ior, our Sav ior. (C)year. (Am)Ho ly, (Am)ho ly, (Em)ho (G)ly! (Am)God is (Am)com ing (Em)near.

(Am)Un to (Am)us a (Em)Sav ior’s (G)born (CN.C.)on a mid night (C)clear. Oh, for Christ mas this year, we’re gon na make a sound, gon na make it loud. For (F)Christ mas this year, we’re gon na make some noise, let the world re joice. For (Dm)Christ mas this year, for (F)Christ mas, for Christ mas, for Christ mas this year, we’re gon na make a sound, gon na make it loud.
