It’s more than the rustle of pretty paper
It’s more than the ringing of a bell
It’s more than the laughter of little children
It’s all of these things and something else
It’s more than the silence of snow flakes falling
Caught on the tip of your tongue
It’s the feeling of home
This time of year
A voice that calls to everyone

It’s a symphony of memories
Playing deep inside of me
Takes me back to when I used to be young
It’s a joyful noise
Joyful noise
A joyful noise

It’s not only the embers in the fireplace
Or the crackling of the flame that keeps us warm
It’s the sound of someone loved you’ve been missing
When you hear their footsteps walking to your door

It’s a symphony of memories
Playing deep inside of me
Takes me back to when I used to be young
It’s a joyful noise
Joyful noise
A joyful noise

The greatest gift we can give to someone else
Is the story of Jesus we tell

It’s a joyful noise
Joyful noise
A joyful noise
