How Do I Wrap My Heart Up for Christmas

Silver bells are ringing

Carolers are singing

Snowflakes drifting through the air

Everybody's shopping

Got no time for stopping

It looks like Christmas is here

So tell me

How do I wrap my heart up for Christmas?

I wanna give it to you

Pretty bows and ribbons

Don't fit the gift I'm givin'

Your lovin' arms will have to do

At first I thought of giving you a pretty diamond ring

Wore myself out shopping for a million other things

Finally decided on something you can't buy

But how will I disguise it so you will be surprised?

How do I wrap my heart up for Christmas?

I wanna give it to you

Pretty bows and ribbons

Don't fit the gift I'm givin'

Your loving arms will have to do

A gift of love was given to the world so long ago

Lying in a manger he was wrapped in swaddling clothes

And every year we celebrate and thank the Lord above

And give to one another our little gifts of love

How do I wrap my heart up for Christmas?

I wanna give it to you

Pretty bows and ribbons

Don't fit the gift I'm givin'

Your loving arms will have to do

Pretty bows and ribbons

Don't fit the gift I'm givin'

Your loving arms will have to do
