Michael Buble - White Christmas Lyrics
Lyrics
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree tops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree tops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases
May all your Christmases
May all your Christmases be white
I'm dreaming of a white
Christmas with you
Jingle Bells all the way, all the way

Michael Bublé - White Christmas (ft. Shania Twain) [Official HD]
Meaning & Inspiration
Michael Bublé's rendition of "White Christmas," featuring the incomparable Shania Twain, released on December 5, 2017, offers a deeply resonant exploration of longing and hopeful anticipation, themes that echo profoundly within the spiritual landscape. While Irving Berlin's classic conjures images of a picturesque, snow-laden holiday, Bublé and Twain infuse it with an emotional depth that speaks to a desire for peace and a return to cherished times, not just of personal memory, but also of spiritual homecoming. The song’s yearning for a white Christmas can be interpreted as a broader yearning for purity and a cleansing, much like the Psalmist David sought God’s cleansing, asking, "Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow" (Psalm 51:7). This desire for a pristine, unblemished world is a sentiment that resonates with the Christian hope for renewal and redemption, a spiritual white Christmas where hearts are made new. The shared longing in the lyrics for a familiar, comforting Christmas mirrors the believer's ultimate longing for eternal fellowship in God's presence, a paradise where, as Revelation 21:1 describes, "there was no more sea." The presence of Shania Twain adds a rich layer of harmony, symbolizing the beauty of unity and shared experience that is central to Christian fellowship. Together, their voices evoke a sense of shared aspiration, a collective prayer for a time of blessing and spiritual serenity, much like the peace that descended upon the shepherds when the angel announced the birth of Christ. This version of "White Christmas" transcends mere nostalgia, inviting contemplation on a deeper hope for a world transformed, a return to innocence and grace, a sentiment beautifully captured in the prayer for God's kingdom to come, "on earth as it is in heaven" (Matthew 6:10).
