text: On a hill long ago, on a cold winters night
  In a land far away, three kings saw a light
  And from heaven it shone like Gods, Gods own crown
  And it guided three kings into Bethlehem town
  Oh, they came bearing gifts and so said each one
  Lets call this day Christmas from this moment on
  Well be calling it Christmas in honor of him
  The child in the manger or savior and king
  Weve been calling it Christmas, keeping the faith
  Knowing the reason were saving the day
  Weve been calling it Christmas down through the years
  Spreading joy to the world when Christmas is here
  Oh, a simple belief was the start of it all
  A small child asleep on a bed made of straw
   where shepherds and kings
  First this moment would bring
  Weve been calling it Christmas, keeping the faith
  Knowing the reason were saving the day
  Weve been calling it Christmas down through the years
  Spreading joy to the world when Christmas is here
  Weve been calling it Christmas, keeping the faith
  Knowing the reason were saving the day
  Weve been calling it Christmas down through the years
  Spreading joy to the world when Christmas is here
  Weve been calling it Christmas down through the years
  Spreading joy to the world when Christmas is here
  Spreading joy to the world when Christmas is here
  Spreading joy to the world when Christmas is here
