Lift up your voice - let all rejoice

And make a joyful sound

Cast off the care Mankind must bear -

When Christmas comes around

 

Stand up and sing  - let love take wing

Our praises shall resound

The Word we share is everywhere

When Christmas comes around

 

Look to your heart - that's where to start -

Where Life itself begins

And you shall know that faith will show

Forgiveness for your sins

 

A time of cheer with loved ones near

To banish grief and fears

With peals of laughter ever after

Echoing down the years

 

Lift up your eyes to seek the skies

With stars forever crowned

That we might see eternity

When Christmas comes around

 

Look to His truth - in age and youth

Salvation shall be found

As one they stand before His hand

When Christmas comes around.
