Secret of Christmas by John McDermott

It's not the glow you feel, when snow appears
It's not the Christmas card you've sent for years
Not the joyful sound when Sleigh bells ring
Or the merry songs children sing

That little gift you send on Christmas Day
Will not bring back the friend, you've turned away
So, may I suggest the secret of Christmas
It's not the things you do at Christmas time
But the Christmas things you do all year through

That little gift you send on Christmas Day
Will not bring back the friend, you've turned away
So, may I suggest the secret of Christmas
It's not the things you do at Christmas time
But the Christmas things you do, all year through
