On a hill long ago on a cold winter's night
In a land far away, three kings saw a light
From heaven it shone like God's, God's own crown
And it guided three kings into Bethlehem town
Oh they came bearing gifts and so said each one
Let's call this day Christmas from this moment on
We'll be calling it Christmas in honor of him
The child in the manger our sav--ior and king
We've been calling it Christmas,
Keeping the faith
Knowing the reason we're saving the date
We've 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
We've been calling it Christmas,
Keeping the faith
Knowing the reason we're saving the date
We've been calling it Christmas
Down through the years
Spreading joy to the world when Christmas is here
We've 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
