(Rita MacNeil)


Memories of walking home

From the Christmas party in the falling snow

Exchanging gifts, exchanging smiles

Hanging pine cones in the hall


[Chorus:]

Merry Christmas meant lots of whispering

Special feelings to bridge the difference

All the years we came together

For Christmas at home


And the radio played in the distance

O Night, O Holy Night


Memories of old Jack Frost

Frozen pictures upon the glass

Changing right before your eyes

With a warm breath from the happy child


[Chorus]


Memories of walking home

From the Christmas party in the falling snow

Exchanging gifts, exchanging smiles

Hanging pine cones in the hall


[Chorus]


And the radio played in the distance

O Night, O Holy Night
