Lyrics Sample

Frost is glistening on the ground

Like tiny diamonds cast around.

Crystals grow on the branches bare

Twinkling in the cold night air, for

Christmas joy is here once more!

Men and angels all adore.

Celebrate the special birth

Of Jesus God’s own Son,

Jesus God’s own Son,

Jesus God’s own Son on Earth.
