Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year !

It's Christmas.Though now it has become a commercial event, there is something special in every Christmas for me. In the early years of my life it was about the Santa and the presents I received. But the time has passed and now entering the period of my life where I have to give presents to others rather than expecting .Now its the time you see scary Santas in shops trying to sell various items.It's the time where you cant travel in a road even in the off peak hours.It's the time you see discounts everywhere.Anyway beside all the changes still its a time to rejoice.It's a time to enjoy with the family and friends.

This carol "Mistletoe and Wine" is a popular single by Cliff Richard.Written by Jeremy Paul, Leslie Stewart and Keith Strachan, this was originally performed as part of the musical Scraps which was based on Hans Christian Andersen's fairytale at the Orange Tree Theatre, Richmond, London in 1976.

The child is a King, the Caroller sing,
The old is past, there's a new beginning.
Dreams of Santa, dreams of snow,
Fingers numb, faces aglow.

Christmas time, Mistletoe and Wine
Children singing Christian rhyme
With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree
A time to rejoice in the good that we see

A time for living, a time for believing
A time for trusting, not deceiving,
Love and laughter and joy ever after
Ours for the taking, just follow the master.

Christmas time, Mistletoe and Wine
Children singing Christian rhyme
With logs on the fire and gifts in the tree
A time to rejoice in the good that we see

Silent night, holy night

Its a time for giving, a time for getting,
A time for forgiving and for forgetting.
Christmas is love, Christmas is peace,
A time for hating and fighting to cease.

Christmas time, Mistletoe and Wine
Children singing Christian rhyme
With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree
A time to rejoice in the good that we see.

Christmas time, Mistletoe and Wine
Children singing Christian rhyme
With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree
A time to rejoice in the good that we see.

Merry Christmas  and a Happy New Year !
