When the days of December are numbered, And the earth begs it's snowflakes to fall . . . That's the time of the year that Christmas is here, With peace and goodwill for all . . . How I love that Christmas feelin' How I treasure it's friendly glow . . . See the way a stranger greets you, Just as though you'd met him Christmas's ago! Christmas helps you to remember, To do what other folks hold dear . . . What a blessed place the world would be, If we had the Christmas feelin' all year! ( repeat last verse ) Words and Music by Bennie Benjamin and George Weiss
