Lyrics

It's christmas in america
There's carols in the air
The snow falling on the ground
There's holly everywhere
The people they're all different too
Their troubles put aside
They smile a little brighter
It seems at christmas time

It's christmas in america
Let the angels sing
It's christmas in america
Let freedom ring
Let peace resound throughout the world
Especially on this day
It's christmas in america
God bless the usa

The kids get so excited
Preparing for the day
Their letters to santa have all been sent
The cookies have been baked
The creche under the christmas tree
Awaits the baby child
It seems to mean so much more this year
Than it has in a while

Coz it's christmas in america
Let the angels sing
It's christmas in america
Let freedom ring
Let peace resound throughout the world
Especially on this day
It's christmas in america
God bless the usa

So keep your babies close tonight
Hug your husband, kiss your wife
Be thankful for this way of life
We're fortunate to share
And not forget the ones we've lost
Their memory lives on in our hearts
They'll be forever in our thoughts
And always in our prayers
Unto this world a child is born
His gift was meant for everyone
The light of peace shines on and on
And never fades away
America, america indivisible we are
One nation under god
And that will never change

Coz it's christmas in america
Let the angels sing
It's christmas in america
Let freedom ring
Let peace resound throughout the world
Especially on this day
It's christmas in america
God bless the usa
It's christmas in america
God bless the usa
