F        C       Bb       F
Another year has slipped into the past
                  C    Bb
Another Christmas is upon us
        F         C       Bb   Db
And all around me snow is falling
                  Bb  C     F
And carollers are on their way


[Verse 2]
              F         C      Bb  F
The stars are twinkling in the heavens
              C                Bb
And there are church-bells far away
           F       C      Bb   Db
Inside the fire is softly glowing
    F                Bb C   F
And love and joy are in the air


[Chorus]
         F         C     Bb        F
And when sun comes up on Christmas morn
    Bb       F        C          Bb
And children play and hearts are won
                   F        Bb      F
It is my hope that you will come to find
    F                Bb      C   F
The joy of Christmas through the year


[Verse 3]
             F       C     Bb    F
At Christmas time we all rejoice anew
                      C        Bb
For all the things we take for granted
    F        C         Bb    Db
The thousand blessings from above
    F                     Bb   C  F
And faith that lights the path we choose


[Chorus]
         F         C     Bb        F
And when sun comes up on Christmas morn
    Bb       F        C          Bb
And children play and hearts are won
                   F        Bb      F
It is my hope that you will come to find
    F                Bb      C   F
The joy of Christmas through the year
