What Christmas Needs to Be - John Schlitt

Whatever happened to this place I used to know

So Well

I remember simpler times where did they go?

Farewell

Didn’t matter ‘bout the «how we make its»

We were happy just to celebrate it

It’s Christmas now

The Gift of Heaven given

Love can be found

In every heart that hears it

A Baby crowned

The hope of our salvation He

Is what Christmas needs to be

What would Christmas be without the things

We dread

What would happen if we choose to give ourselves

Instead

It’s not about the gift we’re bringing

It’s more about the song we’re singing

(bridge)

With just one life all things were changed

A Child is born to light the way

Doesn’t matter ‘bout the «how we make its»

Just remember why we celebrate it
