More Than a Christmas Tree

Let everything that has breathe, praise the Lord,
For He has paid the price for our sins, that we could not afford ,
Jesus left His Heavenly throne, and came to earth,
Born in a dirty stable, as angels glorified His birth,
The shepherds shaken by this, but still they came to see,
The Christ child in a manger, a cross part of His destiny,
Then the wise men came to behold Him, and they came from afar,
Bringing special gifts to Him, their journey guided by a glorious star,
Mary knew He was a special baby, who would a Savior be,
I'm thankful that as He was calling sinners, He included me,
The free gift salvation gives, is living with Jesus throughout eternity,
So I will live life with my eyes on His cross, not on a Christmas tree.
