Christmas Everywhere

Verse:
The leaves have started turning, there’s dirty dishes everywhere
The turkey’s all been eaten and Grandpa’s napping in his chair.
The football games are playing while Mom untangles Christmas lights
If Dad can find the ladder, he’s sure he’ll get them strung tonight.
The box of decorations from Christmases long past
Is found behind the furnace, and Grandma sighs relief at last.
Grandpa’s got the paper and he’s thumbing through the ads.
Looking for the price of things that the grandkids want so bad.
Chorus/Bridge:
Suddenly the town’s alive with people smiling ear to ear.
The lights and decorations fill the streets with Christmas cheer.
The wreaths are hung on every door and there’s magic in the air
You know it’s really Christmas, when there’s Christmas everywhere.
Verse:
Everything is ready, as people come from near and far.
Some are at the airport, others driving in by car.
Soon there’ll be a family, filling each and every room.
The wait is almost over, but it can never come too soon.
The kids are outside playing, and Grandma’s making Christmas treats
The rest are all complaining, about how much they’ve had to eat.
Soon the house is quiet, as they settle for the night
Grandpa brings the presents in as he’s turning out the lights.
Chorus/Bridge:
Then suddenly it’s Christmas Day and the house is filled with joy.
The screams and celebration of children opening their toys.
Christmas wrap and ribbons are strewn from here to there.
You know it’s really Christmas, when there’s Christmas everywhere.
As we gather round the Christmas meal and we bow our heads in prayer
We thank the Lord for all he’s done in bringing Christmas everywhere.
