BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     1. Field of the Invention 
     The present invention relates to a holiday light, and more particularly to a holiday light with LED that provides stable and various lighting effects. 
     2. Description of the Prior Arts 
     Holiday lights are small colored lights for decoration during festivals, especially during winter. Holiday lights are used to decorate homes, public buildings and trees and come in a dazzling array of configurations and colors. 
     Conventional holiday lights comprise a string of incandescent lamp holders and light bulbs. However, incandescent light bulbs have low energy efficiency. Besides, an incandescent light bulb only emits one specific color so the lighting effect is tiresome and unexciting or lamp housings in different colors must be used. Moreover, size of incandescent light limits minimization and uses. When incandescent light bulbs are used to decorate outdoors, the incandescent light bulbs are difficult to waterproof so lifetime is reduced. 
     To overcome the shortcomings, the present invention provides a holiday light with LED to mitigate or obviate the aforementioned problems. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     The main object of the present invention is to provide a holiday light with LED that display stable and various visual effects. 
     A holiday light with LED in accordance with the present invention comprises a seat connected to a lamp, a lens and a cover in sequence. The seat has lower recesses. The lamp has an LED and two groups of wires and each group of wires have three wires. The cover has upper recesses. The wires are clamped between corresponding lower recesses of the seat and the upper recesses of the cover and the LED is mounted between the seat, the lens and the cover.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS 
     With reference to  FIGS. 1 to 3 , a holiday light with LED in accordance with the present invention comprises a seat ( 10 ), a lamp ( 20 ), a lens ( 30 ) and a cover ( 40 ). 
     The seat ( 10 ) has a plate ( 11 ), an annular outer sidewall ( 12 ), an annular inner sidewall ( 13 ), an annular groove ( 14 ) and a chamber ( 15 ). The outer sidewall ( 12 ) has an outer surface and two positioning parts ( 121 ). The positioning parts ( 121 ) are symmetrical and are respectively formed on and protrude transversely from the outer surface of the outer sidewall ( 12 ) of the seat ( 10 ) and each positioning part ( 121 ) has a lower recess ( 122 ) and two holes ( 123 ). The lower recess ( 122 ) of the outer sidewall ( 12 ) is wavy and is formed on the upper surface of the positioning part ( 121 ). The holes ( 123 ) are separately formed through the positioning part ( 121 ) on both sides of the lower recess ( 122 ). The inner sidewall ( 13 ) has an upper surface and two lower recesses ( 131 ). The lower recesses ( 131 ) of the inner sidewall ( 13 ) are wavy, are respectively formed on the upper surface of the inner sidewall ( 13 ) and align with the lower recesses ( 122 ) of the outer sidewall ( 12 ). The groove ( 14 ) is defined between the outer sidewall ( 12 ) and the inner sidewall ( 13 ). The chamber ( 15 ) is defined in the inner sidewall ( 13 ). 
     The lamp ( 20 ) is connected to the seat ( 10 ) and has a printed circuit board (PCB) ( 21 ), an LED ( 22 ), multiple capacitors ( 24 ), multiple resistors ( 25 ), a control IC (integrated circuit) ( 26 ) and two groups of wires ( 23 ). The LED ( 22 ) is electrically connected to the PCB ( 21 ), is mounted in the chamber ( 15 ) of the seat ( 10 ), and is an RGB (Red, Green, and Blue) color illuminant that emits light in different colors. The capacitors ( 24 ), the resistors ( 25 ) and the control IC ( 26 ) are respectively electrically connected to the PCB ( 21 ). Each group of wires ( 23 ) have three wires ( 23 ), are electrically connected to the PCB ( 21 ) and are mounted through corresponding lower recesses ( 122 , 123 ) of the seat ( 10 ). 
     The lens ( 30 ) is mounted on the seat ( 10 ) and is mounted over the LED ( 22 ), is pervious to light, allows light to refract in different light path and has a lower surface, a center tank ( 311 ), an annular sidewall ( 32 ) and a space ( 33 ). The tank ( 311 ) is formed on the lower surface of the lens ( 30 ), and the LED ( 22 ) is mounted in the tank ( 311 ). The annular sidewall ( 32 ) is mounted in the groove ( 14 ) of the seat ( 10 ) and has an upper abutting surface ( 321 ), a lower abutting surface ( 322 ) and two extensions ( 323 ). The lower abutting surface ( 322 ) abuts the upper surface of the inner sidewall ( 13 ) of the seat ( 10 ) as shown in  FIG. 4 . The extensions ( 323 ) are symmetrical and are respectively formed on the outer surface of the sidewall ( 32 ) of the lens ( 30 ) and each extension ( 323 ) has a lower surface and an upper recess ( 324 ). The upper recess ( 324 ) of the annular sidewall ( 32 ) is wavy and is formed on the lower surface of the extension ( 323 ). The space ( 33 ) is defined in the annular sidewall ( 32 ) of the lens ( 30 ). Waterproof glue, such as resin or petroleum jelly, is coated in the groove ( 14 ) or a gasket made of rubber, PVC (polyvinyl chloride) or other soft materials is mounted in the groove ( 14 ) to seal the seat ( 10 ) and the lens ( 30 ) tightly and prevent water from infiltrating inside the seat ( 10 ) and the lens ( 30 ) and damaging the LED ( 22 ). 
     The cover ( 40 ) is mounted around the lens ( 30 ) and connected to the seat ( 10 ) and has an annular outer sidewall ( 41 ), an outer surface, an inner surface, a flange ( 411 ) and two connecting parts ( 42 ). The outer sidewall ( 41 ) of the cover ( 40 ) abuts the outer sidewall ( 12 ) of the seat ( 10 ). The flange ( 411 ) protrudes radially from the inner surface of the outer sidewall ( 41 ) of the cover ( 40 ) and abuts the upper abutting surface ( 321 ) of the lens ( 30 ). The connecting parts ( 42 ) are symmetrical and are respectively formed on and protrude transversely from the outer surface of the outer sidewall ( 41 ) of the cover ( 40 ) and each connecting part ( 42 ) has a lower surface, an upper recess ( 421 ) and two latches ( 422 ). The upper recess ( 421 ) is wavy, is formed on the lower surface of the connecting part ( 42 ) and corresponds to a lower recess ( 122 ) of the seat ( 10 ). The wires ( 23 ) are clamped between corresponding upper recesses ( 421 ) of the cover ( 40 ) and lower recesses ( 131 ) of the seat ( 10 ). The latches ( 422 ) separately protrude from the connecting part ( 42 ) on both sides of the upper recess ( 421 ), are detachably mounted through corresponding holes ( 123 ) of the seat ( 10 ) and each latch ( 422 ) has a distal end and a hook ( 423 ). The hook ( 423 ) is formed on and protrudes from the distal end of the latch ( 422 ) and detachably engages a corresponding hole ( 123 ) of the seat ( 10 ). With further reference to  FIG. 8 , in another embodiment, the seat ( 10 A) and the cover ( 40 A) are fastened to each other by fasteners ( 80 A) such as but not limited to screws. 
     With further reference to  FIG. 6 , the holiday light with LED in accordance with the present invention may further comprise a lamp housing ( 50 ) attached to the cover ( 40 ) to provide light of the LED ( 22 ) to pass through and generate various lighting effects. 
     With reference to  FIG. 7 , multiple holiday lights are generally connected in series to form a holiday light assembly and further comprise an IC controller ( 60 ) and a transformer ( 70 ). The IC controller ( 60 ) is electrically connected to the wires ( 23 ). The transformer ( 70 ) is electrically connected to the IC controller ( 60 ). The IC controller ( 60 ) is operated to control the LEDs ( 22 ) to light according to a program for aesthetic effects, for instance, light synchronously with a same color, light gradually with different colors and so on. The holiday light assembly is used to decorate homes, public buildings, trees, and has a dazzling array of configurations and colors. 
     The holiday light with LED presents many advantages over incandescent light strings, including, lower energy consumption, longer lifetime, improved robustness, smaller size, faster switching, and greater durability and reliability.
