Bb F

The season is upon us now

Bb C7 F

The time for gifts and giving

Bb F

As the year draws to its close

Bb C7 F

I think about my living

Bb F

Christmastime when I was young

Bb C7 F

The magic and the wonder

Bb F

Colors dull and candles dim

Bb C7 F

And darkness standing under

Dm G C7 Bb

Oh little angel in shining light

C7 F

You send my soul to dreaming

Dm G C7 Bb

You've given back my joy in life

F Bb F

And filled me with new meaning

Verse 2:

A Savior King was born that day

A baby just like you

As the wise men came with gifts

I come with my gift too

Peace on earth fills up your time

And brotherhood surrounds you

You may know the warmth of love

And wrap it all around you

It's just a wish, a dream, I'm told

From days when I was young

(twice):

Bb C7 F Dm

Merry Christmas, little Zachary

Bb C7 F

Merry Christmas, everyone
