What is Christmas?
Lyrics
What Is Christmas?
What is Christmas? Can you tell me? Is it found beneath the tree? Who is Jesus? Baby Jesus What has He to do with me?
Why did He leave all His glory? Why would He forsake His throne? Why was He born in a stable? In a stable all alone.
What is Christmas? Can you tell me? Is it found in days of old? What’s a manger? What’s a Savior? What’s the “glory of the lord”?
Why the angel? Why the bright star? On the spire of our tree? Now I’m ready. I will listen Tell the story now to me…
What is Christmas? Let me tell you. It’s the gift of God to man. It’s the birth of baby Jesus Son of God and son of man.
In the stillness lay the whole world Unaware of hidden joy In a stable ‘neath a bright star Cried a tiny baby boy
[LUKE 2: 8-14]
This is Christmas. Please remember It’s the gift of God to man He left heaven and all His glory So that we might live again
This is my wish on this Christmas That His peace you’ll find today So have a very Merry Christmas And a blessed year I pray
Hard to Remember
Though it’s not cold down here still I feel cold inside When I see the world today Though there’s no snow on the ground still I’m chilled to the bone To watch your people slipping away
To watch the freedom that men died for being trampled on the ground As the legacy of truth we share gets buried underground Still I know Your light will shine once again In this world without end. Amen
And it’s getting hard to remember, hard to remember The reason we came to this land Yes it’s getting hard to remember, hard to remember As we move further from our Father’s loving hand
So on this Christmas Eve let us pray for our land That our Lord will show Hid grace to man And on this Christmas Eve peace will reign in our hearts In this world without end. Amen. In this world without end. Amen.
Emanuel
If the Lord came back on Christmas day, would He find our hearts were far away From Him and everything that He holds dear Is there so much underneath the tree, that our Lord would barely see The manger and the Child that died for you and me
Do we still get down upon our knees like the shepherds did that Christmas Eve To praise the Lord our Savior and our King Are we so busy with our own lives that we don’t take the time to thank You For all the good gifts that You bring
Forgive us Lord, we are not worthy Forgive us Lord, and hear our cry
Emanuel, oh how You’re heart must grieve, Emanuel, world’s forsaken Thee Please fill our hearts with peace and joy I pray Please fill our hearts, this Christmas day
So maybe this year when we open up the gifts from those we love We can think about the greatest gift that came from heaven above And give that gift to others in a world that is so lost The gift that Jesus paid for with His life upon the cross
I thank You Lord, for You are worthy I thank You Lord, You are my King
Emanuel, oh how Your heart must grieve, Emanuel, world’s forsaken Thee Please fill our hearts with peace and joy I pray Please fill our hearts, this Christmas day
Emanuel, You came that we night live, Emanuel, there’s no gift we can give You gave it all, remember us I pray Emanuel, this Christmas day
