There'd Never Be a Christmas

Snowflakes strike the windowpane. Winds begin to blow.
Children playing in the yard making angels in the snow.
Sleighbells in the distance as the horses pull the sled.
Christmas lights strung everywhere
With their blinking green and red.

Office party held tonight. Yuletide wishes shared.
Shopping malls with decked out halls.
Christmas Santas everywhere.
Christmas cards we send to those we don’t write or see all year.
Ringing bells… Last minute sales…
We all have that Christmas cheer.

Chorus:
But there’d never be a Christmas without Jesus.
There would never be a Christmas gift
Beneath the Christmas tree.
No more colored lights or mistletoe or leaves of evergreen.
No, there’d never be a Christmas without Jesus.

Turkey in the oven. Pies cool on the shelf.
Mom’s been cooking all day long.
Kitchen’s full of fragrant smells.
Giggles from the children. Dreams of what might be
In those lovely packages beneath the Christmas tree.

Repeat Chorus

Bridge: Christmas is a time of giving.
Of a God who sent His only Son to earth.
He came to us a sacrifice.
A Christmas gift of eternal life.

Repeat Chorus
