Lyrics
HOLIDAY CHEER
On Thanksgiving, put the turkey in to roast;
raise your glass and make a toast.
Thank the Lord for all you've got,
even if it's not a lot.
Share with others when you can -
give a friend a helping hand.
On this Christmas,
carve the ham and pass it 'round;
food and drink and fun abound.
Gifts that wait beneath the tree
show how caring you can be.
When it's peace and love you show,
blessings follow where you go.
On this New Year's,
sample ev'ry party dish,
then at midnight, make a wish.
Start right then to make life new;
do the best that you can do.
Think of all who've come and gone;
Pray your own life may be long.
Chorus:
Dear Fam'ly and friends, from far and near -
gather together for Holiday Cheer.
There is much in the world that is grand and great -
there are blessings aplenty to celebrate!
