My Musical SoCal colleague Tommy Dodson and I are delighted to pass on the merry wishes of our melodious muses, as represented in the below lyrics, and as sung by Tommy Dodson.
HUSH, IT'S CHRISTMAS
Music and Lyrics by Curtis W. Long
Hush, it's Christmas.
When the world is still,
That certain time of year;
When we feel a chill;
And brighten with good cheer;
When things seemed so dire,
A blink in time ago;
When cares seem to tire
And nestle in the snow;
Hush, it's Christmas.
Feliz Navidad, you'll hear
From some voices calling,
Punctuated by good cheer,
Soft as snowflakes falling.
Elsewhere, Merry Christmas floats
Through the maze of pine-scent.
Each and every kidlet knows
This is magic-time-sent.
Hush, it's Christmas.
Stop, relax and breathe;
Exhale the stifling past.
Let all doubt take leave;
Make new, and then hold fast.
Ancient Christmas comes
To tone down all the din,
So that mankind hums
lightens up within.
Hush, it's Christmas.
