Christmas is the time to tell the story
© Mae (Betty) Overstreet 2003/2020
CHORUS:
Christmas is the time to tell the story
how Christ came down from Heaven above
Christmas is the time for rejoicing
giving thanks for God’s everlasting love
God knew that something must happen
He was saddened by a world filled with sin
He sent down His beloved son, Jesus
To be born beneath the Star in Bethlehem
The wise men saw the star in the heaven
Shining brightly they followed the light
shepherds traveled far from their home land
Arriving at the stable that night
As they gazed at the babe in the manger
The Christ child who would save us from sin
They heard the heavenly angels singing
“Glory to God, and Peace toward men
Baby Jesus was born in the manger
he came to earth, to share God’s love
Now we celebrate that day in Bethlehem
Singing praises to our savior above
CHORUS:
Yes, Christmas is the time to tell the story
how Christ came down from Heaven above
Christmas is the time for rejoicing
giving thanks for God’s everlasting love
Yes, Christmas is the time to tell the story
how Christ came down from Heaven above
Christmas is the time for rejoicing
giving thanks for God’s everlasting love
thank you Father for your everlasting love
