lyrics

Only This Christmas
By Joel Glenn Wixson

Only in a barn this baby boy
With not a room to give Him
Not a toy
But the peace around Him and the joy
But only this Christmas

And to Him the lowly shepherds came
Not because they knew Him or his name
But they were drawn right to Him just the same
But only this Christmas

And the wise men coming baring gold
Frankincense and Mir the treasures old
Not the least bit sure what would unfold
But only this Christmas

And His mother Mary so confused
Bout the baby boy she did not choose
But a vision she could not refuse
But only this Christmas

(Chorus)
‘Cause He was a light in the darkness
And a gift to behold
But there’s a part of this story
That’s not often told

For when this baby boy became a man
His life directed by a higher plan
He taught us how to take a stand
But only this Christmas

And if you listen closely to your heart
You will find the perfect place to start
Cause there is no one who can play your part
But only this Christmas

(Chorus)
‘Cause light in the darkness
Is a gift to behold
But there’s a part of this story
That’s yet to be told


(Bridge)
And if you can believe the light is true
You’ve got to believe that the light’s in you
And there is nothing that we can not do
But only this Christmas

So what if Christmas happened every day?
And Peace on Earth was not a thing that we just say?
And we refused to give up anyway
But only on Christmas?

And if you can believe the light is true
You got to believe that the light is you
And there is nothing that we can not do
But only this Christmas
