Calling It Christmas

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
On a hill long ago on a cold winter's nightIn a land far away three kings saw a lightFrom heaven it shone like God's, God's own crownAnd it guided three kings into Bethlehem townOh they came bearing gifts and so said each oneLet's call this day Christmas from this moment onWe'll be calling it Christmas in honor of himThe child in the manger our savior and kingchorus:We've been calling it Christmas, keeping the faithKnowing the reason we're saving the seasonWe've been calling it Christmas down through theyearsSpreading joy to the world when Christmas is hereOh a simple belief was the start of it allA small child asleep on a bed made of strawAt the back of an inn where shephers and kingsFirst felt the joy this moment would bring[repeat chorus][repeat chorus]
