Chris August's "It Must Be Christmas Time" is a cheerful holiday song that celebrates the warmth and joy of the Christmas season. The lyrics paint a cozy picture of gathering by the fireside, decorating the tree, and spending time with loved ones. It references classic Christmas elements like silver bells, mistletoe, and the anticipation of Santa's visit. The song emphasizes that Christmas is a time to show love and give grace, reflecting the spirit of the season. While it mentions angels and a holy night, it focuses more on the festive atmosphere and family togetherness than on the religious meaning of Christ's birth.

Gather round the ole fireside
Set your hearts aglow
String the lights up on the tree
Hang the mistletoe
Silver bells, o holy night
Angels we have heard on high
All is calm, all is bright
It must be Christmas time
Stockings up there on the mantle
Youngest to the old
Gathered together
Couldn't get it any better
Everybody's home
Silver bells, o holy night
Angels we have heard on high
All is calm, all is bright
It must be Christmas time
A time to show love
A time to give grace
Nothing like the holidays
Silver bells, o holy night
Angels we have heard on high
All is calm, all is bright
It must be Christmas time
Kids fast alseep
All full of dreams
Middle of the night
A noise on the roof
You know who
It must be Christmas time
