SO LONG AGO
Music and Lyric by Gene Mitchell

Verse 1
Colored lights; angels in white
A baby; a nativity scene
Christmas trees with stars on top
Reminds us to believe

Chorus 1
That Christmas is more than just shopping malls
It’s about the one who gave His all
So long ago

Verse 2
Salvation Army; ringing a bell
Collects for those in need
Toys For Tots; bring gifts to the kids
Reminds us to believe

Chorus 2
That Christmas is more than just Santa Claus
It’s about the one who gave His all
So long ago

Instrumental

Verse 3
Silent Night, Oh Holy Night
Hark the Herald, Angels Sing
O’ Little Town of Bethlehem
Unto you is born your King

Chorus 3
Songs that remind us what Christmas is really for
It’s the time we celebrate, the birth of our Lord
So long ago
