Not Just
At Christmas
Lyrics by Christina Meyer
Music by Elizabeth Axford©
Verse
A homeless man living on the street
A hungry child with no food to eat
A woman with no shoes on her feet
While we trim the Christmas tree
People crying out for help
But we’re too busy thinking about ourselves
To take the time to lend a hand
And help our fellow man
Chorus 1
We’ve got to do something
So, let’s reach into our hearts
Show the world how much we care
Spreading love throughout the world
Not just at Christmas
But all year
Verse
A child who is battered and abused
But no one can see where he is bruised
We’re at home singing Silent Night
While so many children cry
So many sad stories to be told
Only we can change the world
It’s up to you and I
Why don’t we give it a try
Chorus 2
We’ve got to do something
So, let’s reach into our hearts
Show the world how much we care
Spreading love throughout the world
Not just at Christmas
But all year
It’s time to make a change
And it’s up to all of us
To spread joy everywhere
Not just at Christmas
But all year
Meyer/Axford (c)
