Today I put in the search box “holiday decorations” and this was one of only 30 songs to pop up. This is a beautiful song!
Boyz II Men (pronounced boys to men) is an American R&B and hip hop vocal group from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, best known for emotional ballads and a cappella harmonies. They are currently a trio composed of baritone Nathan Morris alongside tenors Wanya Morris and Shawn Stockman. During the 1990s, Boyz II Men found fame on Motown Records as a quartet including bass Michael McCary, who left the group in 2003 due to health issues.
The song I chose today came from the Christmas Collection: 20th Century Masters: Boyz II Men, released originally on September 23, 2003 on Motown Records. A Joyous Song is my choice from this album.
Love overflows around this season
Our hearts find pleasure in the simplest of things
It brings joy to a child
When he sees all the decorations hanging all around
The birthday of our king
We sing praises to you
People gather around to see a tree
Light up the sky for all of the world to see
Of all the holidays that exist
None makes more happier than this one
Chorus:
I see love all around this world
In every man, woman, boy, and girl
The time is so right and I’ll say
Thank you Lord
It’s so great to be alive
Because it’s all about love
As we sit around the fireplace
Windows fill with snow as it flutters down and gives the ground a glow
I feel your kisses
Your warm embrace
Kneeling as we pray
To thank our Lord for what he’s done for us
Time stands so still
As I touch your hand it says things to me words never will
I feel it (it’s easy to feel) peace all the way inside
Joy from a stranger as he walks by and says
Hi, Merry Christmas to you and yours
May you receive everything you wish for and more
I see love
Chorus (repeats five times)
Songwriters: Shawn Stockman
