Merry December!

Anyone for Christmas carols?

I'm Jewish

me too

I'm not! Merry Christmas.

Stars were gleaming, shepherds dreaming, and the night was dark and chill.
Angels' story rang with glory, shepherds heard it on the hill.
Ah! that singing! Hear it ringing! Earthward winging, Christmas bringing--
Hearken, we can hear it still! Hearken! We can hear it still.

I love this time of year. It's the best and most people are in a good mood no matter what religion they belong to and/or what holiday they celebrate.

We watch the children playing
Beside the Christmas tree
Presents are wrapped up
It's beautiful and secretly
The gifts you'll have
The fun awaits
For you inside
Christmastime has come
There'll be toys for everyone
'Cause Christmastime has come for you

I remeber dreaming
Wishing, hoping, praying for this day
Now I sit and watch them
The little ones I love
So excited by the way
Christmastime has come
There'll be toys for everyone
'Cause Christmastime has come for you

And now the word is given
It's time to peek inside
It's time to let the toys out
So anxious for
Your look of joy and delight
They've waited for
Just a surprise (?)
Christmastime has come
There'll be toys for everyone
'Cause Christmastime has come for you

Christmastime has come
There'll be toys for everyone
'Cause Christmastime has come for you

this is a christmas carol written/performed by the Smashing Pumpkins, a band i adore & who recently disbanded. they also have a lot of meaning to me & some of my close friends, most of who are really far away right now. just listing the lyrics dulls the innocence that this song has - maybe you'll hear it this year, but last year it very rarely got played to teh public.
