Listen my brothers and sisters
This holiday, it is a HOLY day
And so you can't take Christ out of Christmas
Cause if you do, well than you're in the wrong way

He is the reason for the season
The reason for our love
The reason for the gifts we bring
And all we are singing of

He is the reason for the season
The reason for our love
The reason for the gifts we bring
He is the King we are singing for

Yo, yo, yo, yo, come follow me now
Come follow me, follow me now
To a winter wonderland
Full of icicles and snow
Let's build a snowman
And make some snowballs to throw, yo
You got to know that it's not about you

But while the tree tops are glistening, glistening
I hope that you are listening, listening
To the stories in the songs that they tell, yeah
It's all about Emmanuel

He is the reason for the season
The reason for our love
The reason for the gifts we bring
And all we are singing of

He is the reason for the season
The reason for our love
The reason for the gifts we bring
He is the King we are singing for

Yo, yo, yo, yo, come follow me now
Come follow me, follow me now
To a candy cane lane
Full of ornaments aglow
With a manger scene
At the center of it all
You got to know
That it's not about you

Ya hear the church bells are ringing, ringing
And see the choirs they are singing, singing
I hope you listen to the carols that they sing, yeah
They're all about our King

He is the reason for the season
The reason for our love
The reason for the gifts we bring
And all we are singing of

He is the reason for the season
The reason for our love
The reason for the gifts we bring
He is the King we are singing for

He's the reason for the shimmering and glimmering
For sharing and caroling
He's the reason for the ringing and singing
And all the gifts that we're bringing

He's the reason for the dancing and prancing, yeah
The giftwrapping and the laughing
He's the reason for the giving and receiving
Yes, 'cause He's the one we believe in

He is the reason for the season
The reason for our love
The reason for the gifts we bring
And all we are singing of

He is the reason for the season
The reason for our love
The reason for the gifts we bring
He is the king we are singing for

Yo, yo, yo, yo come follow me now
Come follow me, follow me now
To a Christmas tree
Full of ornaments aglow
With a bunch of gifts
Displayed below you
You got to know
That it's not about you

So as Christmas Day is nearing, nearing
I hope that you are hearing, hearing
All the carols and the stories that they tell, yes
They're all about Emmanuel
