When the ten-foot tree crashes to the ground and takes the ornaments with it, a child's voice cuts through the chaos with the only thing that matters. Make sure you listen to the end.

Lyrics

Gingerbread letters with everyone’s name
Handmade ornaments, fancy and plain
The Christmas traditions we all held so dear
The tree that got bigger year after year
Ten feet tall, it was touching the ceiling
We’d finally captured that Christmas feeling
Then the awful sound when it crashed to the ground
And all the boxes and toys broke and one little voice spoke, singing
Keep Christmas in your heart
It’s not the paper and tinsel that will all fall apart
It’s the love that we carry all through the year
So keep Christmas in your heart
That next Christmas morning, we had a much smaller tree
No ladder this year, we put up ornaments we could reach
We delivered gifts and food to a family on Lincoln Street
The smiles on their faces made Christmas complete
Keep Christmas in your heart
It’s not the paper or tinsel that will all fall apart
It’s the love that we carry all through the year
So keep Christmas in your heart
Keep Christmas in our hearts
It’s not the paper and tinsel that’ll all fall apart
It’s the love that we carry all through the year
So keep Christmas in your heart
