  On Christmas Eve I dreamed I traveled all around the earth  On Christmas Eve I dreamed I traveled all around the earth
2  And in my dream I saw and heard the ways the different people                    And in my dream I saw and heard the ways the different people hail the king 2
3  Hail the king whose star shone in the east and what a dream it was   Whose                   star shone in the east and what a dream it was 3

  In London Town I walked around Piccadilly Circus  In London Town I walked around Piccadilly Circus
4  A mass of people movin' here and there, I wondered where   A mass of people movin' here and there I wandered where 4
5  On every face at every place was, "Hurry up, I'm late"   On every face at every place was hurry up I'm late 5
6  But a kind old man at a chestnut stand said, "Merry Christmas mate"   But a kind old man at a chestnut stand said merry Christmas mate 6
  And I felt the Christmas spirit  And I felt the Christmas spirit
7                 [ choir ] 7
  In a little town nestled down in Bavaria Germany  In a little town nestled down in Bavaria Germany
  I walked along to see what the feeling there would be  I walked along to see what the feeling there would be
8  And here again was the busy din, the rushin', the yellin'   And here again was the busy din the rushin' the yellin' 8
9  But some kind boy said, "Frohliche Weihnachten"   But some kind boy said Frohliche Weihnachten 9
10  Not understanding the words but gettin' the buyin' and sellin'   Not undesratnding the words but gettin' the buyin' and sellin' 10
  I felt the Christmas spirit  I felt the Christmas spirit
11                           [ piano - choir ] 11
12  In Bethlehem I heard a hymn, some distant choir sang   In Bethlehem I heard a hymn some distant choir sang 12
13  And with other tourists I walked along to a Church as its bells rang   And with other tourists I walked along to a church as its bells rang 13
14  Then I heard someone tell someone, "There's where Christ was born"   Then I heard someone tell someone there's where Christ was born 14
15  I wonder if He looked like our baby looked on that first morn   I wonder if he looked like our baby looked on that first morn 15
  And then I really felt the Christmas spirit  And then I really felt the Christmas spirit
16                                                                              From a businessman in the Holy Land as a sidewalk souvenirshop 16
17  From         a businessman in the Holy Land at a sidewalk souvenirshop   I bought a little Bible since I'd hardly stopped                            17
4  I bought a little Bible since I'd already stopped   4
  And it was in Paris France somehow by chance that I took the Bible out  And it was in Paris France somehow by chance that I took the Bible out
18  As     I flipped the pages I saw these words   And as I flipped the pages I saw these words 18
19                                             and I knew what it was all about 19
20  And I knew what it was all about                                              For I read fear not for behold I bring you good tidings of great joy 20
5  For I read, "Fear not for behold I bring you good tidings of great joy   5
  Which shall be to all people  Which shall be to all people
21  For unto you He was born this day in the City of David, a Saviour   For unto you he was born this day in the City of David a Saviour 21
22  Which is Christ the Lord"   Which is Christ the Lord 22
23                 [ choir ] 23
24  Then I took the little Holy Book, held it close and tight   Then I took the little Holy Book held it close and tight 24
  I closed my eyes and visualized the glory of that night  I closed my eyes and visualized the glory of that night
  So suddenly it came to me for when I awoke on Christmas Day  So suddenly it came to me for when I awoke on Christmas Day
  I felt the Christmas spirit down deep inside to stay  I felt the Christmas spirit down deep inside to stay
25                                                                     (O little town of Bethlehem how still we see Thee lie 25
6  O little town of Bethlehem how still we see Thee lie   6
  Above Thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by  Above Thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by
  Yet in Thy dark streets shineth the everlasting light  Yet in Thy dark streets shineth the everlasting light
26  The hopes and fears of all the years are met in Thee tonight   The hopes and fears of all the years are met in Thee tonight) 26
