"Why Can't Ev'ry Day Be Christmas"  was originally written and recorded by LaJuana in 1984 ... as part of the Christmas musical, "A Greater Celebration."
While involved in the music department of Grace Lutheran Church in Pocatello, Idaho,  members of the Praise Team that LaJuana ministered with decided that she needed to record this track again!
So, at their insistance, LaJuana used the services of a small, local studio to record this song.  Ken Medley ... instrumentalist with the Grace group ... did a beautiful job laying down the alto sax tracks.  Percussion was supplied by Bob Prestwich, drummer for Grace Praise Team.
For a time, "Why Can't Ev'ry Day Be Christmas" can be downloaded from this site for FREE.  Please enjoy, and have a "Merry Christmas" all year long!

Lyrics

LYRICS
 
(Verse 1)
Why Can’t Ev’ry Day be Christmas
When children’s faces glow
Why can’t ev’ry day, we find a way
To let some kindness show
Why can’t we always be
Quick to spread a word of cheer
Jesus didn’t come, to fill our hearts with love
Only one day of the year.
(Verse 2)
Why Can’t Ev’ry Day Be Christmas
A time we give and share
Why can’t ev’ry day, along the way
We show someone, we care
Why can’t we live in harmony
Learn to trust and not to fear
Jesus didn’t come, so we would get along
Only one day of the year.
(Bridge)
The angels sang, their chorus rang
Of peace, goodwill t’ward men…
Yet, all year long … we forget their song
‘Till it’s Christmas time again.
(Ending Verse)
Why Can’t Ev’ry Day Be Christmas
Why can’t the spirit last
Why can’t friends be true the whole year thru’
And all our strife be past
Why can’t we, always be
Quick to spread that word of cheer
Jesus didn’t come, to fill our hearts with love
Only one day of the year.
(End …) No, He didn’t come
To fill our hearts with love
For just this one day of the year.
