VERSE:
The Ghost of Christmas is past
With shadows of the ways things have been.
Let the light shine in
Like a candle from heaven
‘Till time grows short,
And time is no more.
Fa la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la.
The Ghost of Christmas is past.
VERSE:
The Ghost of Christmas is present.
Oh, God bless us each and every one
With a glimpse of love
Like a vision of mercy.
So carry the torch,
And chant an encore.
Fa la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la.
The Ghost of Christmas is present.
BRIDGE:
The holly and the ivy
Hang from the rafters
As you hear the laughter
On Christmas morn.
There is no want anymore.
No child is poor,
Only children of the king.
Sing hosannas sing, oh.
VERSE:
The Ghost of Christmas is yet to come.
Lead on ‘cause the night is waning fast.
Let the pure joy last.
Like the faith of young children,
Now merry as a boy,
And free to rejoice.
Fa la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la.
The Ghost of Christmas is yet to come.
TAG:
May the Spirit haunt you all year long.
May the Spirit haunt you all year long.
May the Spirit haunt you all year long.
May the Spirit haunt you all year long.
May the Spirit haunt you all year long.
May the Spirit haunt you all year long.
