(C.W. McCall, Bill Fries, Chip Davis)When the snow falls on Christmas Eve,And everything’s whiteI sit by the window,And remember another nightWhen Mama played the organ,And we turned off all the lightsAnd we all stood around herAnd sang Silent NightThe organ is quiet now,And Mama’s goneThe sound of that Christmas EveWill live on and onWe sang all the old carols,The hymns she loved to hearAnd she played them over, one by one,From memory, and by earAnd then she’d find the ancient album,With its pages turned goldAnd the crayon-colored paper starI made so long agoBut brighter than any starWas the love in Mama’s eyesAs she said, « Merry Christmas, kids »,And she kissed us goodnightAnd the organ’s quiet now,And Mama’s goneBut the sound of that Christmas EveWill live on and onThe years have gone by now,Since that last Christmas EveBut the joy is still with me,And the love will never leaveWhen Mama played the organ,And we turned off all the lightsAnd we all stood togetherAnd sang the last Silent Night
