Intro: (hold) Verse 1: Call on your angels, come down to the city Crowd around the big tree, all you strangers who know me. Bring your compassion, your understanding, Lord, how we need it on this New York City Christmas. And I'm sending you a Merry New York Christmas And a prayer for peace on Earth within our time. Yeah, the sidewalk angels echo "Hallelujah", And we understand them, now more than ever. Verse 2: So call on your angels, you're beaten and broken It's time that we mend them, so they don't fade with the season Let our mercy be the gifts we lay, from Brooklyn to Broadway, And celebrate, each and every day of this New York City Christmas. Chorus: And I'm sending you a Merry New York Christmas And a prayer for peace on Earth within our time. Yeah, the sidewalk angels echo "Hallelujah", And we understand them, now more than ever. Bridge: (Listen to the song for the rythm) Merry New York Christmas! Verse 3: So call on your angels, come down to the city, Gather 'round the big tree, all you strangers who know me. Bring your compassion, bring your forgiveness, Lord, how we need it on this New York City Christmas. Chorus: And I'm sending you a Merry New York Christmas And a prayer for peace on Earth, it's not too late. Yeah, the sidewalk angels echo "Hallelujah", And we understand them, we hear them say... Outro: Merry Christmas! (New York Christmas) Ah yeah. (New York Christmas) Yes, (hold) a New York City Christmas. (New York Christmas) (draw out) Merry New York Christmas.
