From the recording Let The Bells Ring
Lyrics
Waiting For Christmas to Come
Church bells are ringing sounds of children’s singing
The mood seeming right to everyone
Smoke from the roof tops lights that make your heart stop
Waiting for Christmas to come
The old mare she’s pacing all season she’s been waiting
To help find that old yuletide bough
Children with a loud hurray climb aboard they’re on their way
Waiting for Christmas to come
Chorus
Waiting for Christmas to come
The young and the old
Sure the fun’s for everyone
Hold on with anticipation
For the greatest jubilation, is waiting for Christmas to come.
Carols on the radio they play the same each year you know
Carving out more memories long the way
Wish’in all your time away waiting now for Christmas Day)
Waiting for Christmas to come
As the moon sends a softened glow that rests upon new fallen snow
The beds are filled with children’s racing minds
The wonders of the coming day
Fill their dreams so bright and gay
Waiting for Christmas to come
Chorus
