It’s Christmastime in Calgary

In foothills west a silent night

The constellations fill the sky

Forever sharing starry light

 

The whitetail deer in Nose Hill Park

Prancing over city’s glow

Sweet homes of dancing candlelight

Gentle as the falling snow

 

And high on top of every tree

The stars and angels overlook

For bleak and icy winter hearts

The melting grace of warm chinook

 

It’s Christmastime in Calgary

Though heights of mountains cold in snow

Our gifts stay warm beneath the trees

Wrapped with love by river Bow
