Christmas was meant for children Children like you and me With mistletoe and holly And toys upon the tree The stockings by the chimney And hearts so full of joy Old Santa's riding through the snow For every girl and boy So ring out the bells from the steeple For the world in its mantle of white Let the star in the East that lead us Shine on your tree tonight Always remember the infant Away in a manger to see For Christmas was made in heaven For children like you and me
