Verse 1

I'm gonna make a wish
This Christmas
I'm gonna say a little prayer
I'm gonna stop here for a moment
Before the moment disappears
The world's in a hurry
This December
City streets and shopping malls
I wish we could slow down
And remember
The meaning of it all

Chorus

Wherever you are
No matter how far
Come back to the heart
The heart of Christmas
Live while you can
Cherish the moment
The ones that you love
Make sure they know it
Don't miss it the heart of Christmas

Verse 2

Let's make it feel
The way it used to
Let's find that wonder of a child
You can see the magic
All around you
Come on and open
Up your eyes
You can find it in the warm
Embrace of your family
Or calling up a long lost friend
You can even find it
In the eyes of a stranger
When you reach out
A helping hand

Chorus

Wherever you are
No matter how far
Come back to the heart
The heart of Christmas
Live while you can
Cherish the moment
The ones that you love
Make sure they know it
Don't miss it the heart of Christmas

Bridge

In the shadow of a steeple
In a star that lights the way
You will find Him in a manger
The heart of Christmas
Has a name

Verse 3

I'm gonna make
A wish this Christmas
I'm gonna say a little prayer

Chorus

Wherever you are
No matter how far
Come back to the heart
The heart of Christmas

Tag

Live while you can
Cherish the moment
The ones that you love
Make sure they know it

Chorus

Wherever you are
No matter how far
Come back to the heart
The heart of Christmas
Live while you can
Cherish the moment
The ones that you love
Make sure they know it
Don't miss it the heart of Christmas
