Cântăre The gift

For them there were no presents

Around the Christmas tree

No flashing lights unless you count

The lamp across the street

A fire in a barrel

No chimney and no roof

To most of them Santa Claus

Was the man who made the soup



In an alley was a mother

Two children by her side

Trying hard to keep the spark

Of true Christmas alive

She said we may not have some things

That other people do

But Christmas is for everyone

And we’re God’s children too



Oh and Jesus loves you

And so do I

Think about the baby and the star up in the sky

I don’t think Santa’s comin’

Cause he don’t know where we live

But who needs Christmas presents

We already have the gift



Well early Christmas morning

While they were still asleep

I packed a box of food and clothes

And walked back to their street

Imagine my surprise when I saw presents all around

Blankets, toys and winter coats beside them on the ground

And the card I read from Santa said

Inside the three of you

The real heart of Christmas is still beating strong and true



Oh and Jesus loves you

And so do I

Think about the baby and the star up in the sky

Santa Claus is comin’

Cause he know where real faith lives

But who needs Christmas presents

We already have the gift

Who needs Christmas presents

We already have the gift

Who needs Christmas presents

We already have the gift
