First Christmas Gift |
God rest ye merry gentlemen |
Let nothing you dismay |
Remember Christ our Savior |
Was born on Christmas day |
To save us all from Satan’s pow’r |
When we were gone astray |
O tidings of comfort and joy |
Comfort and joy |
O tidings of comfort and joy |
Christmas was a present from God on high |
A Child was born so that man wouldn’t die |
He gave His Son so that we might live |
Jesus was the very first Christmas Gift |
Wrapped in swaddling clothes He lay |
Ribbon of light around His head they say |
High in the Heavens a star was lit |
For Jesus was the very first Christmas Gift |
Shepherds as well as kings did come |
To look down upon the Holy One |
Angels rejoiced and the world was blessed |
With Jesus the very first Christmas Gift |
Since then we dread and shop and fret |
And spend a fortune over it |
Greed shows up in kids and grown ups |
Worrying about what we’re gonna get |
When all it takes is a prayer of thanks |
To God for the very first Christmas Gift |
