THE CHRISTMAS GIFT: A SONG ABOUT THE GREATEST GIFT OF ALL

01 The Christmas Gift
Words and music: Rick Eldridge

I want to say... merry Christmas to you
I want to wish you... happiness and joy
But as I look around and see a whole world that's hurting
I can feel the pain... as I see it in their eyes

I want to say... merry Christmas to you
I want to wish you... happiness and joy
But as I look around and see the faces staring blindly
I don't have the answers that can wash away their tears

I know a man who came and died for them
He suffered grief and pain beyond compair
Born a simple child without a home to call his own
Born to be a Savior of the world...

He wants to say... merry Christmas to you
He wants to give you... happiness and joy

And as I look around and see the faces staring blindly
I know He has the answers that can wash away their tears

I know a man who came and died for you
He suffered grief and pain beyond compare
Born a simple child without a home to call his own
Born to be the Savior of the world

He wants to say... merry Christmas to you
He wants to give you... happiness and joy
