Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

The season is upon us now, a time for gifts and giving
And as the year draws to its close, I think about my living
Christmas time when I was young, the magic and the wonder
But colors dull and candles dim and dark my standing under

Oh, little angel, shining light, you've set my soul to dreaming
You've given back my joy in life, and filled me with new meaning

A savior King was born that day, a baby just like you
And as the Magi came with gifts, I come with my gift too
That peace on earth fills up your time and brotherhood surrounds you
That you may know the warmth of love and wrap it all around you

It's just a wish, a dream I'm told from days when I was young
Merry Christmas little Zachary, Merry Christmas everyone
Merry Christmas little Zachary, Merry Christmas everyone
