Sparkling lights and trees all bright and songs are sung like: "silent night"
It is the morning and the dawning of that day so bathed in Light
Gathering people and gathering families celebrate differently than before
For a Baby and the manger are not the only gifts they're looking for.....
God among us God around us God in everyone we see
Not in presents or in buying but in the presence of you and me
So we celebrate and we claim it: Christmas day is here again
But the beauty of this gathering is the Love that's deep within..
People laughing and people talking sharing treats like: food and wine
There's a warmth and there's a presence filtering through this present time
Though there's tearing up of paper; seeing presents bought with care
Something deeper is emerging in hearts of people everywhere
God among us God around us God in everyone we see
Not in presents or in buying but in the presence of you and me
So we celebrate and we claim it: Christmas day is here again
But the beauty of this gathering is the Love that's deep within..
Not the price tags or the sparkling of the shiniest things galore
Can make this Holiday the best Holiday yes we heard this all before
For the celebrating and the feasting and the laughter and the cheer
Are but nothing and are fleeting if we've forgotten why we're here
God among us God around us God in everyone we see
Not in presents or in buying but in the presence of you and me
So we celebrate and we claim it: Christmas day is here again
But the beauty of this gathering is the Love that's deep within..
