A Faithful Christmas

Faith Evans A Faithful Christmas Lyrics
1.Happy Holiday

Happy holiday
Happy holiday

While the merry bells keep ringing
May your every wish come true

Happy holiday
Happy holiday

May the calendar keep bringing
Happy holidays to you

If you're burdened down with trouble
If your nerves are wearing thin
Pack your load
Down the road
And come to Holiday Inn

If the traffic noise affects you
Like a squeaky violin
Kick your cares
Down the stairs
And come to Holiday Inn

If you can't find someone who
Will set your heart a whirl
Take your car and motor to
The home of boy meets girl

If you're laid-up with a breakdown
Throw away your vitamin
Don't get worse
Grab your nurse
And come to Holiday Inn


2.The Day That Love Began

Once upon a christmas eve
A shepherd who believed
That peace
Could come to any man
Made a promise
To a star above
The day that love began

'i will give to him
My lamb
A shepherd's all i am'
And so he walked
The lonely sand
To find the place
His heart was dreaming of
The day that love began

Over meadows
Over mountains
They came from valleys
And from streams
Every poet and every king
And one little shepherd
With a dream

As the shepherd
Knelt to pray
His lamb just ran away
And tear drops
Filled his lonely hand
He broke his promise
To a star above
The day that love began

Then the smiling face
Of mary
Beckoned the shepherd
To her side
Today you gave him
The best gift of all
The moment
That you cried

Once upon a christmas eve
A shepherd who believed
That peace
Could come to any man
Found the place
His heart was dreaming of
And he made a promise
To a star above

Said he found the place
That his heart
Was dreaming of
The day that love began
Began
The day that love began


3.Soulful Christmas

I ain't talkin' just to tease
People like you, you don't grow on dreams
Look at you, that's what it's gonna be
Have everything I need
Around my soul book Christmas tree

Merry Christmas, happy New Year
I love you, have good cheer
I love you, good God

Got my baby, my precious love
Happiness, good God, I got plenty of
Would you believe I got peace of mind
And I'll be groovin' at Christmas time

Merry Christmas, happy New Year
May you have a good cheer
I love you, James Brown love you
Your luck is so and so, missin' you
Brother love

Soulful Christmas like a sweet melody
I'm a lucky you so and so
The bells gonna ring for me

Merry Christmas and a happy New Year
To all of my fans, have a good cheer
I love you, I love you, won't take nobody else
I can't stand myself, huh, good God

I got a heart full of love for the whole wide world
And a little special love, my little soulful girl
I got this feelin' every, every night and then
Gotta get ready, bring the New Year in

Merry Christmas and a happy New Year
All good cheer, there's one more thing
You've been so nice to me down through the years
And I'll always remember you, well, I'll never forget

You bought my records, come to see my show
That's why James Brown love you so
You come to see my show
That's a debt that I'll always owe

Come to see my show, see you at Christmas
Come to see my show, see my show


4.Santa Baby

6.Mistletoe And Holly

Oh by gosh by golly
It's time
For mistletoe and holly
Tasty pheasants
Christmas presents
Countrysides
Covered with snow
Oh by gosh by jingle

It's time for carols
And Kris Kringle
Overeating
Merry greetings
From relatives
You don't know
Then comes
That big night
Giving
The tree a trim
You'll hear voices
By starlight
Singing
Yuletide hollers

Oh by gosh by golly
It's time
For mistletoe and holly
Fancy ties
And Grandma's pies
And folks
Stealing a kiss or two
As they whisper
Merry Christmas to you


7.Christmas Wish

It's always the same at every Christmas
When love comes alive around the world
We open up our hearts when love is in the air
It seems such a shame to me
It's a season that comes only once a year

So let's make a Christmas wish together
Let's hope the best of dreams come true
Let's make the spirit last forever
This is my Christmas wish for you

If I could give any gift I wanted
A present to every boy and girl
I'd make it a miracle that came from God above
A picture of peace on earth
Where each person is judged by the power of love

It seems such a shame to me
It's a season that comes only once a year


8.Christmas Song

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos

Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all a glow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every Mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

And so I'm offering a simple little phrase
To kids from one to ninety two
Although it's been said many times many ways
Merry Christmas to you

They know that Santa's on his way oh oh
And he's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
Oh and every Mother's child ooh they're gonna spy
To see reindeer really know how to fly

And so I'm offering a simple little phrase
To every little kid from one to ninety two
Although it's been said many times many ways
Merry Christmas Merry Christmas
Merry Merry Christmas to you Merry Christmas baby


9.This Christmas

Ooh, hang all the mistletoe
I'm gonna get to know
You better this Christmas
And as we trim the tree
How much fun it's gonna be
Together this Christmas

Oh, the fireside
Is blazing bright
We're caroling
Through the night
And this Christmas
Will be a
A very special
Christmas for me
Yeah, yeah

Oh, presents
And cards are here
My world is filled
With cheer and you
This Christmas
And as I look around
Your eyes
Outshine the town
They do
This Christmas

The fireside
Is blazing bright
We're caroling
Through the night
And this Christmas
Will be a
A very special
Christmas for me
Yeah, ooh

Merry Christmas
Shake your hand
Shake your hand
Yeah, ooh

Oh, the fireside
Is blazing bright
We're caroling
Through the night
And this Christmas
Will be a very special
Christmas for me
Oh

Shake your hand
Shake your hand
Yeah
Do you feel
All over the world
Shake your hand
Shake your hand
Yeah
All over the world
Merry Christmas


10.White Christmas

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree tops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all
Your Christmases be white

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree tops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases
May all your Christmases
May all your Christmases
May all your Christmases be white

I'm dreaming of a white
Christmas with you
Jingle Bells
All the way all the way


11.O Come All Ye Faithful

Oh come ye
O come ye to Bethlehem
Come and behold him
Born the King of angels
O come let us adore him
Christ the Lord

God of God
Light of light
Lo he abhors
Not the virgin's womb
Very God
Begotten not created
O come let us adore him
Christ the Lord

Sing choirs of angels
Sing in exultation
Sing all ye citizens
Of heaven above
Glory to God
In the highest

O come
Let us adore him
Christ the Lord

See how the shepards
Summoned to his cradel
Leaving their flocks
Draw nigh with lowly fear
We too will thither hend
Our joyful footsteps
O come let us adore him
Christ the Lord

Yea Lord we greet thee
Born this happy morning
Jesus
To thee be glory given
Word of the Father
Now in flesh appearing
O come
Let us adore him
Christ the Lord
