Its not lights shining brightly
Nor tinsel on the tree
Or gifts of gold and silver
Of these we have no need

It’s a time for love and caring
A time to give and share
A time of celebration
With happiness in the air

It’s not about the sleigh ride
Nor ringing of the bells
Or even of the carolers
Although they wish us well

He’s the precious gift God gave us
He came to set us free
He brings us peace and comfort
True love in Him you’ll see

So remember the true meaning
When Christmas comes around
The true gift is within you
Through Christ Jesus it is found.
