Whose carols were heard
On that first Christmas Night.

To your house, to my house

Friends near and far,
We travel by plane,
Or by bus, or by car.

And knelt down and worshiped,
The child they found there.

Or Christmas by full name,
No matter the language,

Whose bright sparks fly high,
To give a warm welcome,
To friends passing by.

We show at this time,
In giving to others,
And all mankind.
