作曲 : Gaither, Gaither, Sykes ... Oh, there's nothing quite like Christmas in the country The simple joy of family by the fire And Carols ringing out across the valley The neighbors that make up the village choir Oh, the joy of Christmas in the country The love and warmth of gentle memories And going back to a simple old love story It's waiting in the country just for me The Smell of fudge and apples from the kitchen The bubble lights that flicker on the tree Whispered sounds of secrets from the children Embrace and call back home the likes of me The Laughter stops as Dad picks up the Bible. It falls from habit, open to Luke chapter two And none of us will ever tire of hearing "Now children here is how God came to you" "There were in that same country shepherds watching They flocked at night upon a lonely hill" And with his well worn voice he tells the story Of how God loved us once and loves us still That's the joy of Christmas in the country The love and warmth of gentle memories And going back to a simple old love story It's waiting in the country just for me It's waiting in the country just for me. Corrected by Paul.
