Born in a cold world,

On what would become Christmas day

In a stable, in a manger,

There He did lay

In humble condition

His life already being sought

While others have Him

Not even a thought

Though the wisest men

Sought the star

That led them to

A place so far

They knew though

That He was our saving grace

They brought Him gifts

As they saw His face

Looking into the eyes of God’s son

Redemption was there

The time had come

Sheppard’s were told of His birth

They excitedly went, to see

The son of God

Who would someday set us free

The angels sang and celebrated

For they knew

This was the child

Who would someday save me and you

Through the coldness

A gift was born, in a manger He did lay

To give us the meaning

Of this Christmas day

For it cannot be found in the stores

Or under the Christmas tree

Cannot be bought with fancy titles

Or all the money

For it is a gift already received

One that we cannot repay

For this was the ultimate gift

The reason we call it, Christmas day
