For unto us a child was born that day, (rejoice)
So a lot of people sing and Christians say, (then darling)
In the early morning unto us was born a little girl last May
No sooner can a Douglas fir light up her face
Than we're strapping it to the car

For we trim it by the fireplace
With the light of the world
That our little girl is showing us

Unto us ten million children were born last may, (rejoice)
And the government shall rest upon their shoulders
Blessed be their names
Wonderful
Counselor
One one wonderful
No sooner does a fir grow tall
In Clara's dream
Than we lose our little girl
And gain a sugar-plum fairy
Dancing through her kingdom in a brown-stone hall
As the celesta rings from the TV on the walls
To the heart of the world
That our little girl's been showing us

For unto us is born this day
In the city of David
A savior which is Christ the lord
Whatever we may think of that
From Syria to Manhattan
Let every child be adored
