Christmas comes but once a year
When snowflakes and laughter appear
It's a goodness that seems to say
This is a wonderful day.
Christmas is filled with the sound
Of peace and goodwill all around
But when the season is gone
That's when you wish it kept on.
The world is a glorious place
A gift for the whole human race
Give thanks to the Lord up above
By living a lesson of love.
Spread joy, you'll hear angels sing
In fall, winter, summer or spring
Open your heart when you hear
It's Christmas each day of the year.
"Christmas Comes But Once A Year"
