[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] It was a chilly Christmas eve, snow drifting soft and slow, Two weary travelers knocked, seeking shelter from the cold. At the big ol' farm they said no, no room for beggars here, But in the tiny cabin, they were welcomed with good cheer. [Chorus] Oh Christmas time, season of gifts, let your heart open wide, Give with open arms, and blessings come right back inside. No gold, no shine, just pure kindness wins the day, In the quiet night, the magic finds its way, yeah! [Verse 2] The poor folks shared their simple meal, gave up their only bed, Slaughtered their prized ram, made a feast instead. The guests stayed on, shared laughs and tales through the night, And come the morn, a promise: "We'll be back next year, alright." [Instrumental solo] [Bridge] Neighbors eyed their sudden luck, envy burned so bright, Begged to steal the strangers, lure 'em to their site. But greed twists wishes, turns 'em upside down, In the end, just emptiness, and lessons all around. [Refrain] Hey ho, Christmas light, shine bright and true, For the kind ones, rewards come through, for the jealous, just rue. Let kindness flow, like snow so pure, Then joy dances right through your door! [Verse 3] A year goes by, their fields bloom rich, livestock strong and fine, The strangers return, but envy pulls 'em to the line. At the wealthy's feast, tricks go wrong, wishes misfire fast, Horses gone, horns appear – oh, what a blast! [Instrumental Hook] [Chorus] Oh Christmas time, season of gifts, let your heart open wide, Give with open arms, and blessings come right back inside. No gold, no shine, just pure kindness wins the day, In the quiet night, the magic finds its way, yeah! [Outro/Refrain Variation] Hey ho, Christmas light, show us the path, Kindness always triumphs, greed meets its wrath. Merry Christmas everyone, let the wonders start!
