Wee Sing Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Isn't this an exciting time of year?
I love all the decorations
And lights
And presents
And music
We're gonna sing all kinds of Christmas songs
Songs of celebration and joy
And fun songs, too
Look, here come the carolers
Come on, let's join in as we sing for Christmas
Here we come a-caroling among the leaves so green
Here we come a-wandering, so fair to be seen
Love and joy come to you
And to you thy Christmas, too
And God bless you and send you
A Happy New Year
And God send you a Happy New Year
We are not daily beggers that beg from door to door
But we are neighbors' children whom you have seen before
Love and joy come to you
And to you thy Christmas, too
And God bless you and send you
A Happy New Year
And God send you a Happy New Year
