Composer(s): Liz Anderson

Oh hear the chimes ringing, it’s Christmas again
With tidings of peace and good will to all men
So greet every stranger and make him your friend
For that is the spirit of Christmas
(Christmas time … oh Christmas
listen there’s bells in your heart)
This I know: love must flow
For love is the spirit of Christmas

In Bethlehem’s manger in years long grown dim
The Christ child was born so our love He might win
So open your heart out and let him come in
For He is the spirit of Christmas
(Christmas time … oh Christmas
listen there’s bells in your heart)
This I know: love must flow
For love is the spirit of Christmas
Love is the spirit of Christmas
