C-h-r-i-s-t-m-a-s Lyrics - Eddy Arnold

When I was but a youngster Christmas meant one thing 

That I'd be getting lots of toys that day 

I learned a whole lot different when mother set me down 

And taught me to spell Christmas this way 

C is for the Christ Child born upon this day 

H is for Herald Angels in the night 

R means our redeemer I means Israel 

S is for the star that shone so bright 

T is for three wise men they who travelled far 

M is for the manger where he lay 

A's for all he stands for S means shepherds came 

And that's why there's a Christmas Day 

And that's why there's a Christmas Day
