You Can't Have Christmas Without Christ

without christ, christmas feels so small
lights are bright but that's not all
a tree can't hold the weight of love
without that star shining above

it's not just dinners, gifts, or cheer
there's something bigger drawing near
a baby born in a quiet place
bringing hope to every face

take him out, it all feels thin
like a song without a meaning within
but with christ, it's clear and true
a light that shines in all we do
