Everyone, come gather near
And I'll tell you a story
That you love to hear, ooh
It's Christmas time
The season's bright
And all around the world we celebrate
The birth of Christ
He came to bring us peace
He came to bring us everything that we need
To set us free
How I long to feel that Christmas spirit
In my heart
Yes, I long to feel that Christmas spirit
In my heart
As a child, I still recall
Christmas was my favorite season of them all, ooh
My heart was filled with childlike grace
And the hope there is in knowing
Why the Savior came
He came to bring us peace
He came to bring us everything that we need
If we believe
Now I long to feel that Christmas spirit
In my heart
Yes, I long to feel that Christmas spirit
In my heart
So turn the heart from sin
And let God dwell within
Not to destroy, ooh
The greatest gift I know
He came to earth below
To show us love
He came to bring us peace
He came to bring us joy
He came to bring us everything
In faith if we believe
The gift that we receive
Is life and love and everything
The greatest gift I know
He came to earth below
He came to bring us everything
Still I long to feel that Christmas spirit
In my heart
Yes, I long to feel that Christmas spirit
In my heart
How I long to feel that Christmas spirit
In my heart
In my heart
