    Question "Christmas in July"?

    Trying to locate the music and complete lyrics to a song that (I think) is titled "Christmas in July". My recollection of it dates from about 1982 or so. I have some of the lyrics I copied from a very poor recording on an old cassette tape; the refrain is:

    "There’s a little bit of Christmas in every single day,
    We don’t have to have the jingle bells, the holly or the sleigh,
    It’s the way we should be living, the things we do and say,
    We can Have a Merry Christmas, Have a Merry Christmas,
    Have a Merry Christmas, If we try…in July."

    It is a peppy and fun little song, mainly I think for children. The audio tape I have is from a church Christmas program in that time period. I have no information on the names of the artists or publisher, just the song.

    I did search around the web but really did not run across it. There do seem to be other songs with similar titles or themes, but not this particular one.

    Thanks for help or clues...

    Default "Christmas in July"?

    I found a piece of video with the song mentioned above, "Christmas in July" and have posted it on YouTube. If you have a chance to listen to the song, perhaps it might trigger a memory of where it comes from.

    Hello again. I reposted the above video on YouTube with those lyrics I could piece together as large type subtitles. So, if you do get a chance to look at it again, post here if you recognize the song.
