Well it is not about the presents, it is not about the tree
It is not about you and it is not about me
It is not about what you think or what you have been told
Christmas is all about a baby who was born long ago…
They laid him in a manger with a star overhead
But it is not about the star and it is not about the bed
The wise men traveled far and the cattle they did lo
But it is not about the wise men or how far they had to go
Joseph was the father and the mother's name was Mary
It wasn't about the parents, it was about the baby that she carried
Well the angels sent the shepherds to witness this great joy
But it is not about the shepherds, it is all about the baby boy
Well it is all about the baby who was sent from up above
It was the greatest gift from God, it is how he showed his love
God sent him here to teach us and he sent him here to die
To take the wages of our sins for both you and I…
Now they named this baby Jesus, we all should celebrate his birth
The greatest thing that ever happened is when he came to earth.
So in this Christmas season let us all spread God's love
And get down on our knees and thank God he sent Jesus down from up above.
