Hey you wanna come over here,
And help me trim our tree,
Mom and Dad got the bestest one,
It’s sized just right for me.

My puppy is trying to help,
And that busy cute kitty too,
Puppy hides in the branches,
And kitty climbs over and thru.

I think we need to have animals,
When Jesus was born they were there,
Did you know He did not have a bed,
So the animals their shelter shared?

We will hang angels and bright colored balls,
Oh and glowing candles to give off light,
Like the bright Star of Bethlehem,
That led shepherds to Jesus that night.

We have lots of candy canes to hang,
Enough to decorate the Christmas tree,
They represent Jesus by shape,
Red and white are for His blood and purity.

Isn't Christmas just the best day of the year,
I don't mean the presents and their worth,
But to know Jesus was born for me and you,
That cold December night right here on Earth.

Dad said Baby Jesus was wrapped,
By Mary in soft swaddling clothes,
In a picture it looks like strips of cloth,
It's the way they dressed babies I suppose.

There were Wise Men that traveled,
They came from a long way afar,
And they found Jesus in the Manger when,
They followed that big shining star.

Mom has a star to put on top of the tree,
She said it means we too follow the light,
It don't shine in the sky but in our hearts,
‘Cause we love Jesus with all our might.

Oh I am so happy God sent the Baby,
Whose Birthday we celebrate each year,
If we give our hearts to sweet Jesus,
Never ever will His love disappear.

Happy Birthday Dear Jesus,
The world was blessed that December Morn,
Now every Christmas we celebrate,
The special day that You were born.

Happy Happy Birthday Jesus!
Thank You for living in my heart,
The greatest gift I'll ever receive,
Is the precious love You impart.
