Lyrics
Course
Merry Merry Christmas
It's time to Celebrate (it's time to Celebrate)
Jesus is the reason for the season (now let's give Him Praise)
Merry Merry Christmas
You hear the children laugh and play (hear them laugh and play)
It takes me back to my younger days
Verse 1
Back when I was young
We used to chill at grandmas house for Christmas.
She was always cooking it up.
And every time someone walked through the door they were always greeted with a smile and a hug.
I was just a little boy playing with cars on the rug.
While everybody else was catching up.
And through the smell of the fresh baked goods and the laughter in the air, you could feel the unconditional love.
And through the years some things changed but some things still remained.
My grandparents they pulled out their instruments and played,
Yeah they gave the Lord praise.
When I was young I didnt quite understand,
But now that I've grown older as a man.
I'm going to train my children up in the way they should go
And when they get old you know, (they be like)
Course
Merry Merry Christmas
It's time to Celebrate (it's time to Celebrate)
Jesus is the reason for the season (now let's give Him Praise)
Merry Merry Christmas
You hear the children laugh and play (hear them laugh and play)
It takes me back to my younger days
Verse 2
Back when I was young
I thought Christmas was all about having fun
Then my grandma Set me down and said listen up son
This is what Christmas is truly about.
No it's not about Christmas carols or Santa Claus coming to town.
It's about a baby in the manger
For God so loved the world that He sent His Son to save it.
Give direction to three wise men with a shining star and when they made it to Him, man they praised Him.
They brought him frankincense myrrh and gold
But the greatest gift ever Mary got to hold.
Behold Emmanuel God with Us
And through his life on Earth now he lives in us.
The greatest gift ever given to man
Mary got to hold in her hands
Not everybody stand and give praise to the one who came to this world and bright salvation to the land
Course
Merry Merry Christmas
It's time to Celebrate (it's time to Celebrate)
Jesus is the reason for the season (now let's give Him Praise)
Merry Merry Christmas
You here the children laugh and play (here them laugh and play)
It takes me back to my younger days
