Lyrics
Looking back at the year left behind
Up ahead there's a new one in sight
Sitting here thinking back and beyond
The sound of the present rings clear
As the bells toll and Christmas is here
Songs and carols of long, long ago
Carry memories more precious than gold
Through the ages of love and of war
Remember a child who was born
As the bells toll on Christmas morn
Oh come, oh come, Emmanuel
Peace and joy, let sorrows melt
Just like the snow upon the trees
As winter passes on
To spring, Oooo
Look ahead, to the star in the east
Follow closely, it leads to the King
Weary dreamer, oh sleeper awake
Gather the people, from every place
Light all the lanterns and sing
Oh come, oh come, Emmanuel
Peace and joy, let sorrows melt
Just like the snow upon the trees
As winter passes on
To spring
Oh come, oh come, Emmanuel
Peace and joy, let sorrows melt
Just like the snow upon the trees
As winter passes on
(Gather the people) Oh come, oh come Emmanuel
Peace and joy, let sorrows melt
(Sorrows melt) Just like the snow upon the trees
As winter passes on
To Spring
Oooh
