OH IF ONLY CHRISTMAS COULD

BE YOUNG ONCE MORE

THE ANTICIPATION ~EXCITEMENT

THAT ONLY A CHILD CAN HAVE

THE KIND THAT MAKES

OUR EYES LIGHT UP AND OUR HEARTS

FEEL GLAD

OH IF CHRISTMAS COULD BE

YOUNG ONCE MORE

REMEMBER WHEN YOU COULDN'T SLEEP

WHEN EVERY VOICE AND EVERY NOISE

WE THOUGHT WAS SANTA AS HE

WOULD CREEP

WIDE EYED AND HEARTS RACING

JUST THINKING WHAT SANTA WOULD

BRING

MAMA TUCKING US IN BED AND LOOKING

INTO HER EYES

AS SHE WOULD SING

TRYING TO CATCH A CLUE AS TO WHAT WE

WOULD RECEIVE

AND TELLING MAMA THAT IN SANTA WE

DID BELIEVE

NOW THAT I AM OLD I SEE HOW MUCH FUN

CHILDHOOD WAS

BUT NOW I HAVE A NEW EXCITEMENT BECAUSE OF JESUS

FROM ABOVE

JESUS IS THE TRUE GIFT THAT I RECEIVE EACH DAY

JESUS IS THE ONE WHO HEARS US WHEN WE ASK

AND WHEN WE PRAY

SO NOW WHEN CHRISTMAS COMES AROUND

MY EXCITEMENT IS FOR JESUS

AND MY GIFT~

THAT I MAY BE HEAVEN BOUND
