This Is Christmas

Words by Mabel Jones Gabbott

Music by Michael F. Moody

1. Children singing, music ringing on the frosty air.
This is Christmas; there is gladness here and ev’rywhere.
Kindness filling, laughter spilling from our hearts away.
People caring, people sharing; this is Christmas Day.

Chorus

2. Sing His glory, tell the story of the Baby’s birth.
Little stranger in a manger came to live on earth.
Sing His goodness, praise the fullness of His life for us,
and remember, oh remember that He died for us.

Chorus

Chorus
This is Christmas and its meaning:
The Lord Jesus came to forgive us, to redeem us.
Praise His holy name.
