A precious song from the 1974 show, “T’was the Night Before Christmas”
This has to be my favorite Christmas TV show. I remember watching this when I was a kid. Last year I searched everywhere to find this on DVD or even on TV to share with my kiddos. I could find it on VHS but never on DVD. I hit the jackpot this year however. I began searching again and kept ending up on a Frosty the Snowman DVD (the one where he meets his wife). Luckily I read the reviews and found that Twas the Night Before Christmas is not out on DVD by itself, rather, it is on the DVD “Frosty’s Winter Wonderland” (The Rankin Bass Version) If you want this DVD, check it out and pick it up, it will not let you down…It is the same version as we all know and love!!!
Below is the link to the DVD on Amazon
Even A Miracle Needs a Hand
Miracles happen most every day
to people like you and me
but don’t expect a miracle
unless you help make it to be
You hope while I hurry
You pray while I plan
We’ll do what’s necessary cause
Even a miracle needs a hand
You love and I’ll labor
You sit while I stand
Get help from a next door neighbor cause
Even a miracle needs a hand
We’ll help our maker
to make our dreams come true
but I can’t do it alone
So here’s what we’re gonna do
You hope while I hurry
You pray while I plan
We’ll do what’s necessary cause
Even a miracle needs a hand
We’ll help our maker
to make our dreams come true
but we can’t do it alone
So what are we’re gonna do
You wish while I whittle
You drip while I dry
Lets all try to help a little cause
Even a miracle needs a hand
Well, I hope if you were looking for this show I helped you find it!!!
Great price on that DVD and those lyrics are beautiful. As I read through them, when I first hit the chorus, I remembered watching that and listening to that song. I too loved that movie – it would be a nice mid christmas day entertainment for the kids. Thanks for sharing.
Yes you can find it on DVD saw it this past weekend in Bowling Green Kentucky at Sam's on our way to Nashville TN for a weekend trip.
