What Christmas Means To Me (Oh, Holy Night)

I was just eight years old Waiting for the falling snow To tell me the Holidays were near To some he was a fantasy But oh he seemed so real to me Old St. Nick bringing Christmas cheer I could not wait to see the wondrous gifts he had for me Cause I had done my best to be the kind of kid he wanted me to be That's what Christmas meant to me Then I was twenty-nine Seeing Christmas through my children's smiles All the wonder and the majesty Though I still love the snowy eaves The memories, the Christmas trees Oh they paled in comparison To see them standing patiently Waiting for the gifts they would receive Cause I had done my best to be the kind of dad they wanted me to be That's what Christmas meant to me Then I heard a simple song That changed the world for everyone For Christ had come to show us a better way What happened on a Silent Night A baby born to give us life And I heard the angel choir sing They sing Oh, holy night The stars are brightly shining It is the night Of our dear Savior's brith Now I am forever changed And Christmas is my favorite day For love has come to loose us from chains And underneath all the things From mistletoe to the bells that ring Runs the same beautiful refrain And I can hardly wait to see the gifts He has for you and me For we could never do enough to earn this great, amazing love And oh, that's what Christmas means to me Fall on your knees Oh hear the angel voices Oh night divine Oh night, when Christ was born Oh night divine Oh night, oh night divine
