Once a Year

(Oh-whoa)
(Oh-whoa)
(Oh-whoa-oh)

Christmas Eve, mom and dad
Load the car with grocery bags
They take the kids and drive downtown
And spend the night passing food out

Once a year, December's here and our hearts open up
Once a year, we give with cheer to those who don't have enough
Wouldn't it be something if we all learned to love
Like it's Christmas more than once a year?

(Oh-whoa)
(Oh-whoa)
(Oh-whoa-oh)

No one rings a bell at the mall in June
But nobody said we can't give them too
And when Autumn comes with its changing leaves
Could we spend more time with the least of these?

Once a year, December's here and our hearts open up
Once a year, we give with cheer to those who don't have enough
Wouldn't it be something if we all learned to love
Like it's Christmas more than once a year?

Love is patient, love is kind
Love will always find the time
Love is now and love is here
Love is more than once a year

Once a year, December's here and our hearts open up
Once a year, we give with cheer to those who don't have enough
Wouldn't it be something if we all learned to love
Like it's Christmas, oh, more than once a year?
