Burning Tree Projekt Christmas Song Lyrics

Christmas Song Lyrics

If you only knew that this Christmas

Wasn't about wishes under a star

If you only saw… it’s not about stockings,

Ornaments and presents under a tree



It's more than who we are

It's more than giving gifts

Why can't you see the truth

It's what God gave to you

God sent his son, for everyone

To pay the price, and sacrifice

For everyone, for everyone

While children laugh and play their games

And concentrate on candy canes

He was born for us to die for us

My Jesus



As hearts are waiting

Adrenaline’s racing

Children anticipating

Tucked in their beds,

Gifts dance in their heads

As families flock to prepare

Chasing winds gone for the taken

A day fading from its essential meaning

For a meaningless selfish substitution

Its confusing living closed in

Both eyes seeing delusions

Falling a misleading way

Rippling traditional waves

Unraveling ties slowly slipping away 

To a flat man with reindeer and sleigh

Remember three wise men finding a baby in hay

Lifting up gifts and praise

Risking their lives on Christmas day



What can I say or do?

On Christmas Eve, gathering to celebrate

The birth of the king

What can I say to you?

On Christmas Day, giving out gifts and praise

For a new covenant remains

There's more to living once you take the giving God gives
