Happy Birthday, Jesus
by Wayne Wysocki
Happy Birthday, Jesus.
Happy Christmas Day.
We have been bad, so now is the time
To bow our heads and pray.
Happy Birthday, Jesus.
What's it all about?
You made the cake and you made the wish,
But we blew the candles out.
Happy Birthday, Jesus.
Listen while we pray.
Please tell us why we can't get along
On this Christmas Day.
Happy Birthday, Jesus.
What's it all about?
You made the cake and you made the wish,
But we blew the candles out.
Happy Birthday, Jesus.
Though we've gone awry
Give us the strength and show us the way,
And we'll give it one more try.
Happy Birthday, Jesus.
What's it all about?
You made the cake and you made the wish,
But we blew the candles out.
Happy Birthday, Jesus.
Here's our gift to you:
It isn't gold or frankincense,
But a promise to be true.
Happy Birthday, Jesus.
What's it all about?
You made the cake and you made the wish,
But we blew the candles out.
