The Greatest Gift of Christmas
I wrote and performed this Christmas song in late 2022 as my contribution to the holiday season. Listen for free via YouTube, or follow links to listen / purchase elsewhere. :)
[Verse]
We look around our little town
The weather’s getting colder.
With memories of Christmas past,
And now we’re one year older.
For some, there’s sadness in the air.
For others, only joy.
But for all of us who know Him,
We celebrate a boy.
[Chorus]
He was born on Earth to give us hope
And fill our hearts with love.
The greatest gift of Christmas
Was a present from above.
He was born on Earth to show us how
To care for all we see.
To lift the world by giving,
And to set ... all people free.
[Verse]
We know that others see the world
So differently than we do.
But if we’re here to love them,
We know they must be free to.
At Christmastime, we love them,
And try to bring them joy.
’Cause at Christmastime we celebrate
A special baby boy.
[Chorus]
He was born on Earth to give us hope
And fill our hearts with love.
The greatest gift of Christmas
Was a present from above.
He was born on Earth to show us how
To care for all we see.
To lift the world by giving,
And to set ... all people free.
[Bridge]
If we love this Christmas season
And the way it melts our hearts.
Then we give what’s best within us,
And with love we play our parts.
For it’s in this special season
We observe the birth of Christ.
Who showed the path of freedom
When he made ... His sacrifice.
[Verse]
We hear the bells and carols of this
Chilly Christmas season.
And our hearts grow warm with gratitude
For its good and blessed reason.
We share this warmth with those in need
To try and bring them joy.
’Cause at Christmastime we celebrate
A special baby boy.
[Chorus]
He was born on Earth to give us hope
And fill our hearts with love.
The greatest gift of Christmas
Was a present from above.
He was born on Earth to show us how
To care for all we see.
To lift the world by giving,
And to set ... all people free.
Born on Earth to show us how
To care for all we see.
To lift the world by giving,
And to set ... all people free.
We look around our little town
The weather’s getting colder.
With memories of Christmas past,
And now we’re one year older.
For some, there’s sadness in the air.
For others, only joy.
But for all of us who know Him,
We celebrate a boy.
[Chorus]
He was born on Earth to give us hope
And fill our hearts with love.
