This Time of the Year
BROOK BENTON, CLYDE LOVERN OTIS
Little girls and little boys
Dream of worlds full of toys
This time of the year
When Christmas is near
Evergreens are snowy white
Sleigh bells ring through the night
This time of the year
When Christmas is near
And somewhere near a steeple
People kneel and pray
And choirs sing carols of Christmas day
Santa Claus is on his way
Loads of joy on his sleigh
This time of the year
When Christmas is near
And somewhere near a steeple
People kneel and pray
And choirs sing carols on Christmas day
Oh Santa Claus is on his way
Loads of joy on his sleigh
This time of the year
When Christmas is near, ooh
This time of the year
When Christmas is near
