CHRIST IS THE FIRST WORD IN CHRISTMAS
(WILL HE BE THE FIRST WORD IN YOURS)
Thru the hustle and bustle to get your shopping done,
And as you go to your parties to have lots of fun,
Are you leaving out Gods’ only Son?
Or will He have first place in your Christmas.
CHORUS
Christ is the first word in Christmas,
Will He be the first word in yours?
Christ has first place in Christmas
Why not let Him have first place in yours.
As you go to your relatives that are so dear,
And you're raising your voices in holiday cheer.
Is what’s standing out, that Jesus is nowhere near,
Or will He have first place in your Christmas?
CHORUS
You wrap pretty presents in ribbons of blue,
And you write on the card that it’s from me to you.
But when all of this holiday season is thru,
Why not let Him have first place in your New Year too.
CHORUS
