How do I know it's Christmas?Someone asked me today, So I am going to tell you Of the signs along the way. I hear the merry, ·merry bells Ring out in accents clear, That tell to all the waiting earth Glad Christmas time is here. I see the stars that brightly gleam In skies so blue above, And then I think of one that shone To tell us of God's love. I hear the children's voices sing Sweet carols once again, And so I think how angels sang Of peace, good will to men. I see the candles gleaming now From windows far and near; They, too, bear us the message -t- That Christmas time is here. · 1 l How do I know it's Christmas?
