C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-S 1966 Songtext
von Hank Snow

(And here′s why there's a Christmas Day.)

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.

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...
