Christmas is a lovely time
For quiet peace and rest
Everybody gets a little break
But the baby in the manger
And the smile upon his face
Call us to a deeper life of faith

Christmas is especially
for those who love the lord
And will follow close to Jesus
From the stable to the throne
Those who love him so that they
will always try to make
Every day of every year
a celebration of his birth

When we follow after him
And leave the Christmas eve
Soon we'll see a hill, a rugged cross
And we must approach it
And bow down that is the only way
To truly honor Christ, the child, the king

Christmas is especially
for those who love the lord
And will follow close to Jesus
From the stable to the throne
Those who love him so that they
will always try to make
Every day of every year
a celebration of his birth

a celebration of his birth
