Now kids hang on just a second before we start. You know there's a reason we are all here in front of Grandma and Grandpa's Christmas tree. And if Trevor and E.P. would quit fighting long enough and be real quiet, This little song might help you all understand

A D A

Long ago in a stable there was a baby being born

D

His parents were Joseph and Mary

A

And Joseph's big ole heart was torn

D E A Fm

Cause he couldn't find a decent place for Mary to have her child

D E D A

But Mary said it just seemed just right and she blessed it with her smile

A D A

Cause what made it special was the baby in her arms

D A E

God sent him down to give the world a second chance for you and I

A D A

That's why we have Christmas at this time each year

D E D E A

It's the baby's birthday party that brings us so much cheer

Now kids the presents that all of you exchange on Christmas, represents the gifts that baby Jesus received the night he was born. He got all his presents from three wise men, who followed a star and walked a long long way to the stable. So everytime you tear open one of your presents, think about that baby and say Happy birthday Jesus, I'll open this one for you

Cause what made it special was the baby in her arms

D A E

God sent him down to give the world a second chance for you and I

A D A

That's why we have Christmas at this time each year

D E D E A

It's the baby's birthday party that brings us so much cheer
