Story Behind The Song
I've been writing this for a long time, but had so much material, I couldn't think. Then when I went to the hospital, I put my notes in a safe place. Lost them! So I just sang what I could and ended with a short, simple, fast, happy Christmas song.
Song Description
I decided to make this a fast, modern,
Christmas song about the birth of Jesus. My daughter said she didn't like the music in church, so I made it like a rock tune! AND I chose this title because there were too many other songs with the title, Merry Christmas, Jesus, and Happy Birthday, Jesus. Then someone told me he didn't want to listen to it because it would be sad.
So I'm hoping this simple song will get people and children to rockin' about Christmas!

A HAPPY CHRISTMAS SONG
MERRY CHRISTMAS, JESUS
Happy Birthday, too.
It was the year the star appeared
Bringing news of you.
Three stars converged together
to light the night so bright
It led the shepherds and wise men
To the town of Bethlehem
Where they found the new-born babe
In a manger where He laid.
MERRY CHRISTMAS, JESUS
Happy Birthday, too.
It was the year the star appeared
Bringing news of you.
MERRY CHRISTMAS, JESUS
Happy Birthday, too.
It was the year the star appeared
Bringing news of you.
Three stars converged together
to light the night so bright
It led the shepherds and wise men
To the town of Bethlehem
And they brought him gifts and praise
And they knelt on knees to pray.
MERRY CHRISTMAS, JESUS
Happy Birthday, too.
It was the year the star appeared
Bringing news of you.
Merry Christmas, Jesus.
Happy Birthday, too.
