C-h-r-i-s-t-m-a-s lyrics

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 that day
H's for Herald Angels in the night
R means our redeemer I means Israel
S is for the stars that shone so bright.
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/h/hank_snow/c_h_r_i_s_t_m_a_s.html ]
T is for three wise men they who travelled far
M's 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.

T is for three wise men they who travelled far
M's 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...
