Well Halloween is barely gone
There's Black Friday deals on Amazon
But I don't understand why they're on
'Cause it ain't Thanksgiving yet
There are Santas on my TV screen
With the networks raking in the green
And in all the excitement it seems
That there's one thing we forget
That's the reason for the season
This is just another Christmas song
And it won't be here for very long
'Cause when January comes along
They're put away where they belong
So let's sing a song to Jesus Christ
Who took our sin and paid the price
See it's not about the presents or a tree
It's about eternal life for you and me
The PA's in the shopping malls
Play "Jingle Bells" and "Deck The Halls"
And I wonder if we know at all
What we're really doing here
'Cause we'll wait five hours in the rain
For a Barbie doll or Xbox game
And we never really act the same
Any other time of year
Let it lead us back to Jesus
Let's put the Christ back into Christmas
And never miss a chance to witness
To what the Savior's doing in our lives
And let's sing our songs to Jesus Christ
Who took our sin and paid the price
And sacrificed himself upon the tree
To buy eternal life for you and me
Nicely done!
