Lyrics: Israel Houghton – Everybody Knows
Do you feel the changing of the weather
Do you hear the music in the air
Do you see all the smiling faces
Do you know what everybody everywhere knows
Oh so so wonderful
So wonderful
Oh everybody knows
Everybody knows
Oh so so wonderful
Everybody knows it’s Christmas time
Feel the love of giving and receiving
Hear the songs silent night holy night
Angels we have heard on high
Joy to the world the Lord is come
See the choir swaying to the rhythm hallelujah
They all know it’s the most wonderful time of the year
Oh so so wonderful
Oh everybody knows
Oh so so wonderful
Everybody knows it’s Christmas time
Everybody knows it’s Christmas
Gather ’round your friends and family
Light up the Christmas tree
And start the celebration
Everybody knows it’s Christmas time
Oh oh oh so so wonderful
Everybody knows it’s Christmas
Oh oh oh
Everybody knows it’s Christmas
Oh oh oh so so wonderful
Everybody knows it’s Christmas time
More than a feelin’ more than a season
A chance for seizin’ the moments
You’ve been given for a reason
The greatest present you can give
Is you and you alone everybody knows
What in the world is going on when people try
To take and remove the Christ
Right out of Christmas time
It’s a life that is lived that and nothing more
One holy day but what about
The other three-hundred and sixty-four
Everybody yeah everybody everywhere can I share
More than ever it’s a time to love and a time to care
Everybody needs to know what you know
Everybody knows it’s Christmas time
Take the stand have your say
Put your love on display
Just until everybody knows
Everybody knows
