Christmas Throughout the Year

 

I know a happy soul that always whistles a Christmas tune

He whistles just as happily regardless if its December or June

 

For him Christmas joy is not for a certain time of year

Rather it is an everyday spirit through his whistle we hear

 

If only Christmas was all the time

Then love and peace would forever shine 

 

It’s not the decorations, the presents under the tree 

But our time with friends and family we love to see

 

If only Christmas was all throughout the year

Then children would never know a single tear

 

It’s not the stores, the elves and Santa we need

We need the joy and spirit of God’s grace indeed

 

If only Christmas’ perfect meaning was clear

In our hearts, it must live throughout the year

 

And if you get a chance, especially in June

I hope you’ll whistle your own joyous Christmas tune!
