Sound the trumpets loud and clear



[Christmas time is here]



That it can be heard everywhere



[Christmas time is here]



Everyone looking happy



Everyone looking glad



Everyone looking happy



Only I've been sad



Yes I wish you a Merry Christmas



[Rasta Ras will be there]



And wherever you may be



Telling me your giving me a listening hand



I'll try to be happy



'Cause you know what Christmas brings



You never know what's going to happen



When you hear the choir begin to sing, choir sing







Yes I wish you a Merry Christmas



[Rasta Ras will be there]



And wherever you may be



Telling me your giving me a listening hand



I'll try to be happy



I'll try to be glad



You can't tell what's going to happen



When you hear the choir begin to sing, choir sing



[Sound the trumpets loud and clear]



Well, a Merry Merry Christmas to you, yeah



That it can be heard a Merry Christmas to you



I'll try to be happy



'Cause you know what Christmas brings



You can't tell what's going to happen



When you hear the choir begin to sing, choir sing
