What a Glorious Christmas Morning is a song from the 1974 album An Adaptation of Dickens' Christmas Carol, Performed by The Walt Disney Players that is sung by carolers, and a reprise closes out the album after the story ends.

Scrooge’s solo and a repeat of another verse in the song is omitted from the 1983 reissue.

Lyrics[]

What a glorious Christmas morning
What a day this is going to be
All over the world the Christmas bells
Ring out the happiest of noels

Let's all share this timely thought
It's better to give than receive
What a glorious Christmas morning
After our Christmas eve

Every Christmas dinner will be a winner
With turkey, the start of the day
Then a big plum pudding to top it off
Is it any wonder we say

What a Glorious Christmas Morning
Very happiest day of the year
When children’s eyes have a special glow
From joy that only a child could know

Old St. Nick has come to call
Surprises up his sleeve
What a Glorious Christmas Morning
After our Christmas Eve

Scrooge: They won’t know me
They won’t know me
They won’t recognize the miser they abhor
They won’t know me
They won’t know me
I’ll be someone they can practically adore
They won’t know me
I’ll be homey
Like a grandpa with a kiddy on my knee
With a smile on my geezer
They’ll say that’s not Ebenezer
They won’t know me

Chorus: Let’s all share this timely thought
It’s better to give than receive
What a glorious Christmas morning
After our Christmas eve
