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 sat me down And taught me to spell Christmas this way
C is for the Christ Child, born upon this day H for herald angels in the night R means our Redeemer I means Israel S is for the star that shone so bright T is for three wise men, they who traveled far M is for the manger where He lay A is 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 traveled far) (M is for the manger where He lay)
A is for all He stands for S means shepherds came
And that's why there's a Christmas day And that's why there's a Christmas day
