Calling It Christmas (with Joss Stone) Lyrics - Elton John

On a hill long ago, on a cold winter's night 

In a land far away, three kings saw a light 

And from heaven it shone like God's, God's own crown 

And it guided three kings into Bethlehem town 

Oh, they came bearing gifts and so said each one 

Let's call this day Christmas from this moment on 

We'll be calling it Christmas in honor of him 

The child in the manger or savior and king 

We've been calling it Christmas, keeping the faith 

Knowing the reason we're saving the day 

We've been calling it Christmas down through the years 

Spreading joy to the world when Christmas is here

Oh, a simple belief was the start of it all 

A small child asleep on a bed made of straw 

[Unverified] where shepherds and kings 

First [Unverified] this moment would bring 

We've been calling it Christmas, keeping the faith 

Knowing the reason we're saving the day 

We've been calling it Christmas down through the years 

Spreading joy to the world when Christmas is here 

We've been calling it Christmas, keeping the faith 

Knowing the reason we're saving the day 

We've been calling it Christmas down through the years 

Spreading joy to the world when Christmas is here 

We've been calling it Christmas down through the years 

Spreading joy to the world when Christmas is here 

Spreading joy to the world when Christmas is here 

Spreading joy to the world when Christmas is here
