Lyrics

[00:13.03] There's a little girl trembling on a cold December morn
[00:22.44] Crying for ma ma's arms
[00:26.33] At an orphanage just outside a little China town
[00:36.23] Where the forgotten are
[00:40.95] But half a world away I hang the stockings by the fire
[00:47.53] And dream about the day When I can finally call you mine
[00:53.48] It's Christmas time again but you're not home
[01:01.32] Your family is here and yet you're somewhere else alone
[01:07.57] So tonight I pray that
[01:09.72] God will come and hold you in his arms
[01:16.35] And tell you from my heart
[01:20.27] I wish you a Merry Christmas
[01:28.41] As I hang the tinsel on the tree and watch the twinkling lights
[01:37.11] I'm warmed by the fire's glow
[01:42.22] Outside the children tumble in a wonderland of white
[01:50.76] And make angels in the snow
[01:55.19] And half a world away you try
[01:59.51] Your best to fight the tears
[02:02.60] And hope that heaven's angels come
[02:06.10] To carry you here
[02:09.82] It's Christmas time again but you're not home
[02:16.62] Your family is here and yet you're somewhere else alone
[02:23.11] So tonight I pray that
[02:25.27] God will come and hold you in his arms
[02:31.69] And tell you from my heart
[02:35.01] I wish you a Merry Christmas
[02:40.20] And Christmas is a time to celebrate the Holy Child
[02:47.16] And we celebrate
[02:49.17] His perfect gift of love
[02:54.48] He came to us to give
[02:56.60] His life and prepare a place for us
[03:01.26] So we could have a home with Him above
[03:07.50] Christmas time again and now you're home
[03:14.73] Your family is here so you will never be alone
[03:20.49] So tonight before you go to sleep
[03:24.95] I'll hold you in my arms
[03:29.58] And tell you from my heart
[03:36.89] And I'll tell you from my heart
[03:40.77] I wish you a Merry Christmas
[05:24.02] Chorus:
[05:24.02] We wish you a Merry Christmas
[05:26.23] We wish you a Merry Christmas
[05:28.14] We wish you a Merry Christmas
[05:30.67] And a Happy New Year
[05:33.00] Good tidings we bring
[05:34.50] To you and your kin
[05:37.08] Good tidings for Christmas
[05:39.76] And a Happy New Year
[05:41.76] We wish you a Merry Christmas
[05:43.40] We wish you a Merry Christmas
[05:46.00] We wish you a Merry Christmas
[05:48.27] And a Happy New Year
[05:50.63] Good tidings we bring
[05:52.68] To you and your kin
[05:55.06] Good tidings for Christmas
[05:57.53] And a Happy New Year
[05:58.86] We wish you a Merry Christmas
[06:01.52] We wish you a Merry Christmas
[06:03.48] We wish you a Merry Christmas
[06:05.60] And a Happy New Year
