Lyrics

The Jingle of the Bells
By Bruce Bergh


It’s the jingle of the bells,
The way the Christmas dinner smells
The wrapping paper flying off the gifts so fast
The memories of family of Christmas’ past

It’s the man made out of snow
It’s the kiss beneath the mistletoe
It’s everyone having so much fun
On this special day

It’s the sneeking just to see
What’s in the gift beneath the tree?
The holly, the lights, the decorations at night
Lit up for all to see

It’s the carols in the air
The anticipation of children everywhere
Wondering what will happen next
On this special day?

There’s different ways to celebrate
By people ‘round the earth
As the whole world gathers
And honors the Lord's birth

It’s the fire within the hearth
It’s the giving from the heart
The icicles forming by the windows at night
The sight of Santa and his reindeer in flight

It’s the skating on the pond
It’s the taste of cold fresh egg nog
Celebrating every way
On this Christmas Day.

Instrumental

It’s the jingle all the way
In a one horse open sleigh
Gliding through the snowy meadow
Laughing all the way

May this holiday
Bring love and happiness your way
Merry Christmas everyone
Enjoy this special day!
No matter how you celebrate
Happy Christmas Day!
