The season is upon us now
The time for gifts and giving
As the year draws to its close
I think about my living
Christmastime when I was young
The magic and the wonder
Colors dull and candles dim
And darkness standing under
Oh little angel in shining light
You send my soul to dreaming
You've given back my joy in life
And filled me with new meaning

Verse 2:
A Savior King was born that day
A baby just like you
As the wise men came with gifts
I come with my gift too
Peace on earth fills up your time
And brotherhood surrounds you
You may know the warmth of love
And wrap it all around you
It's just a wish, a dream, I'm told
>From days when I was young
(twice):
Merry Christmas, little Zachary
Merry Christmas, everyone
