LISTEN: “El Niño (Love Is King)” by Willie Nelson, on Hill Country Christmas (1997)

He is born
There’s a reason now to carry on
Toot your horns
Write another song
Love is here
Seated at your table now
Not livin’ in a stable now
Love is king

So let us sing
Let us sing
Love is king
Love is king
(Repeat)

He is born
There’s a reason now to carry on
Toot your horns
Write another song
Love is here
Seated at your table now
Not livin’ in a stable now
Love is king

Angels sing
About the king
Let it ring
Love is king

So let us sing
Let us sing
Love is king
Love is king
