Oh... what is Christmas all about?

Oh what is Christmas all about and what is it ever for?
Is it about any of the gift giving or the long hours spent in the store?
Is it about any of the presents we're getting or the running around here and there
Christmas is about a Little Baby and how His Birth is celebrated everywhere

Oh if this Christmas could be so different 
so unique and so unlike before
We could all be looking for some kind of opportunity 
to welcome the King once more
Like the first Christmas, we  wouldn't find Him, 
amongst the richest or those finely dressed
But instead we might surely find Him 
amongst those ignored by all the rest...

With all of the bows and the glitter the big boxes and all of the toys
It's easy to be caught up in the hysteria and the unmeaningful worldly noise
But apart from all of this gift giving this receiving and this big hoorah
A Baby is stil in the Holiday and He's awaiting the welcome He once saw

Oh if this Christmas could be so different 
so unique and so unlike before
We could all be looking for some kind of opportunity 
to welcome the King once more
Like the first Christmas, we  wouldn't find Him, 
amongst the richest or those finely dressed
But instead we might surely find Him 
amongst those ignored by all the rest...

O would you take time this coming Christmas to break from your normal routine
And seek out the ones, who are forgotten the ones needing some love serene
Would you go out of your way to love them ..to bring them some love.. some smile
Oh then you would surely be grasping it: the message of The Christmas child..

Oh if this Christmas could be so different 
so unique and so unlike before
We could all be looking for some kind of opportunity 
to welcome the King once more
Like the first Christmas, we  wouldn't find Him, 
amongst the richest or those finely dressed
But instead we might surely find Him 
amongst those ignored by all the rest...
