The Christmas Story
The Christmas story we were taught so well
And it’s a story that we love to tell
Tales of sweet angels who excitedly
Permeate sky with song beautifully.
On the unforgettable holy night
The star of Bethlehem was shining bright
Gleaming o’er the place of Jesus Christ’s birth
Born to save the souls of people on earth.
Will the light shine for us this Christmas Day
Will the darkness finally fade away
Earth’s in unrest that’s gone beyond control
Lord we implore you to save all lost souls.
The world is in need of peace for healing
From the anguish it's people are feeling
May this Christmas abolish all hatred
With hearts filled with love we will achieve it.
We must find the will inside to survive
It's love and trust that will light up our lives
Born for us, Jesus died for our sakes too
A gift from God above to me and you.
Life’s become harder for some of us all
Gone are joyous days when life was a ball
Despondence just keeps on coming our way
Pray that changes because of Christmas Day.
