When Christmas Comes This Year

When Christmas Comes This Year - B.J. Thomas

When Christmas comes this year

There'll be laughter and good cheer

And lots of presents underneath the tree

Sometimes it's easy to forget

A child was born in Bethlehem

The greatest gift the world has ever seen

There will be brand new shiny toys

There will be joyful girls and boys

We'll take a sleigh ride

Through the gently falling snow

But there is a star that shines above

To show us the gift is really love

Reminding us to open up our hearts

For a child was born upon a midnight clear

Let us pray the world will keep his spirit near

When Christmas comes this year

When Christmas comes this year

If you listen close you'll hear

Voices singing hope for everyone

Around the fire burning bright

With our loved ones here tonight

We'll sing a song of joy for He has come

There will be brand new shiny toys

There will be joyful girls and boys

We'll take a sleigh ride

Through the gently falling snow

But there is a star that shines above

To show us the gift is really love

Reminding us to open up our hearts

For a child was born upon a midnight clear

Let us pray the world will keep his spirit near

When Christmas comes this year

There will be brand new shiny toys

There will be joyful girls and boys

We'll take a sleigh ride

Through the gently falling snow

But there is a star that shines above

To show us the gift is really love

Reminding us to open up our hearts

For a child was born upon a midnight clear

Let us pray the world will keep his spirit near

When Christmas comes this year
