Faron Young – Country Christmas lyrics

Composer(s) – Bill Emerson and Jody Emerson

In our little country settlement there's harmony a-ringing
The echo flowing softly through the hills of silent night
All the shinny decorations on the big tree in the church yard
Will make the folks for miles around sing I Saw the Light

We're gonna have a country Christmas
We're gonna Christmas the old time away
We'll let the church bells ring as we gather 'round to sing
And show our love for Jesus as we pray

We'll have lots of homemade candy and presents for the children
And let the elders grace the table filled with the food and wine
There's not a better way to say happy birthday Jesus
Than to have a good old gospel singing country Christmas time

We're gonna have a country Christmas
We're gonna Christmas the old time away
We'll let the church bells ring as we gather 'round to sing
And show our love for Jesus as we pray
Jesus as we pray
