Phil Wickham, “Christmastime”

Phil Wickham, “Christmastime”

Phil Wickham has one of the most under-appreciated voices in Contemporary Christian music today, and his new CD, Songs for Christmas, makes it even more obvious. The gorgeous Christmastime is the chosen single, and it is wonderful. Phil’s beautiful voice comes into full display here, and I truly appreciate it. The purity of his baritone is balanced perfectly by his crystal-clear enunciation; I really think Christmastime is one of the most singable singles out this Christmas, and it definitely works out; Phil Wickham’s Christmastime is the most added single at Christian Soft AC/Inspo, and rightly so.

CHRISTMASTIME Lyrics
Phil Wickham

A beautiful December night
Snow has turn this city white
This old town has gone to sleep
Save the church on 2nd Street
All the faithful now have come
To join and sing these Christmas songs

Let them ring
Let them ring
Sweet carols of a King
Coming down
Coming down
From His thrown above the clouds
To bring us light
Yeah, to save our lives
Christmas time

What a Merry Christmas morn
The Saviour of the world is born
The God of all the universe
Is bringing light into the earth
So everybody join and sing
Celebrate the newborn King

Let them ring
Let them ring
Sweet carols of a King
Coming down
Coming down
From His thrown above the clouds
To bring us light
Yeah, to save our lives
Christmas time

Oh, sing for joy
Sing for joy
Every girl
Every boy
For the highest of Kings
Has come down for you and me
To bring us light
Yeah, to save our lives
Christmas time

Oh, come let us adore Him now
Oh, come let us adore Him now
Oh, come let us adore Him now
Because He saved our lives
He saved our lives

Sing for joy
Sing for joy
Every girl
Every boy
For the highest of Kings
Has come down for you and me
To bring us light
Yeah, to save our lives

It’s Christmas time
It’s Christmas time
Yeah, it’s Christmas time
It’s Christmas time
It’s Christmas time
