about

A yuletide shoutout to Uncle Frank.
I have never met him. He is not my Uncle.
He lives in Peoria, IL and used to ride dirt-bikes.
He thinks this song is stunning.

lyrics

Dirt-bike rider in the third degree,
find your gift under the Christmas tree!
Hang your stocking! It's Christmas Uncle Frank!

All the houses in Peoria are dressed in Wintergreen Euphoria!
It's Christmas! Merry Christmas, Uncle Frank!

Hear the bells? They're ringing! Ringing!
Find yourself some Christmas cheer!
Hear the children singing! Singing!
Tell the kids that Santa's here!

From the Outer Banks to Illinois,
presents come to little girls and boys!
It's Christmas! Merry Christmas, Uncle Frank!

A star shines brightly over Bethlehem;
gifts are brought by all to offer him.
It's Christmas! Merry Christmas, Uncle Frank!

Jesus born inside a manger scene,
A baby born to rescue everything!
It's Christmas! Merry Christmas, Uncle Frank!

Hear the angels singing! Singing!
Glory, to the Lord on high!
Hear the children singing! Singing!
Jesus comes! To save our lives!

Long the world was tied to sin and pain.
Hope was born again on Christmas Day!
It's Christmas! Merry Christmas, Uncle Frank!

Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head
It's Christmas! Merry Christmas, Uncle Frank!

I love you Lord Jesus, look down from the sky,
and stay by my cradle 'til morning is nigh
It's Christmas! Merry Christmas, Uncle Frank!

Be near me Lord Jesus I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever and love me, I pray.
Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care
And fit us for Heaven to live with Thee there.

Hear the angels singing, singing:
Glory! To the Lord on high!
Hear the children singing, singing:
Jesus Comes! To Save our Lives!

Long the world was tied to sin and pain
Hope was born again on Christmas Day.
It's Christmas1 Merry Christmas, Uncle Frank!
