1. Now the time had come for God to send to earth his precious son.
It could have been Australia where this miracle was done
On what little country town would God have shone his bright new star?
Could you have been a shepherd or a wise man from afar?
CHORUS
It's Christmas in Australia let us celebrate and sing
The good news of a saviour Jesus Christ the new born king.
2. There are bushfires in the south and there are cyclones in the north.
The flies just love the outback and the east brings tourists forth.
"Oh it doesn't feel like Christmas, there's no snow or holly boughs"
But Christmas is where Jesus is so come to him right now!
CHORUS
It's Christmas in Australia let us celebrate and sing
The good news of a saviour Jesus Christ the New Born King!
