[Verse]
CComes the time for CFhristmas, and I rGeally have to aAmskG

Now Cexcuse me if I’m not being Freverent, but I was Ghoping for a miracle to Amhold me, Gwash me
AmSave me from my Frighteous doubt, as I wGatch helpless, and Ceverybody sings
If it's CHanukah or FKwanza, GSolstice Harvest or AmDecember Gtwenty Amfifth

At twenty Cbelow the winter storm it Fbillows, but the Gfire is so warm inCsideG  
And the Amchildren while nestled in their Fpillows, dream of GSt. Nicholas’ Cride
And how tChe next day they’ll get up and thFey will play, in tGhe still falling ChristmCas sGnow
And Amtogether we’ll celebrate forFever, in defiGance of the winds that CblGow
My God in CHeaven, now I feel like I’m Fseven, and the GSpirit calls to me as Cwell
As if AmChristmas, had made the Fwinter warmer, Gmade a paradise from whCat was Hell

As if a Amcold and Amfrozen Gsoul is Gwarmed, to Amlove, by Amlove’s own ChandC  
So goes the Amprayer, if Amfor a Gday, peace Gon Earth, Fand good Fwill to Gman
