For every girl and every boy.
With twinkling lights and laughter bright,
We cherish love on this holy night.

A winter wonderland, such a magical sight.

Santa with presents ready to leave.
With Dasher and Dancer leading the line,

On the table by the tree,
Cookies sit for Santa’s glee.
A glass of milk, a warm delight,
For the jolly man with beard so white.

A symbol of hope on Christmas Day.
It shines above, both near and far,
Lighting hearts like a guiding star.

Love-filled words are gently said.
A hug, a kiss, a joyous glow,
A tender moment in the snow.

Gifts unwrapped beneath the tree.

A little angel glowing white.
She watches over, shares her light,
A symbol of peace on this special night.

Spreading joy for all to hear.
Their cheerful chime, their joyful song,
Reminds us Christmas lasts all year long.

For love and peace to surround you.

And magic to fill your heart this year.
