Merry Christmas


Sometimes in the hustle and bustle of things we loose sight of what this holiday is really about.  We have arguments over if we should say Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays.  Was Jesus really born on December 25th or was he really born in the summer?  There are probably many others in this long list of arguments that we can come up with that surround the Christmas holiday that are relatively unimportant.  The last few Christmas seasons I am reminded of the song Give the Gift by singing it in a group or solo.  The words still ring true and amidst all the other “stuff” lets not forget that the real reason that we are here, to show the love of Jesus to other people and win them to Christ.  


From all of us at vasoutherngospel.com and this blog have a Merry Christmas and don’t forget the true reason for the season is to give the gift.  


Give the Gift


Verse 1:

Seems Christmas starts earlier each season

The stores light up for all the wrong reasons

Displaying all the latest things to spend your money on

That only lasts a moment then their gone


Chorus:

Give the gift that keeps on giving

The one that makes this life worth living

The one that won’t wear out or ever fall apart

Give the reason for the season

Give them something to believe in

Give the gift that keeps on giving

Share the Jesus in your heart


Verse 2:

There’s lots of things we could buy each other

But to really show our love for one another

This year why not share the gift God sent to you and me

The One He left hanging on a tree Chorus


Chorus 2:

Give the gift that keeps on giving

The one that makes this life worth living

The one that won’t wear out or ever fall apart

Give the reason for the season

Give them something to believe in

Give the gift that keeps on giving

Share the Jesus in your heart


Give the reason for the season

Give them something to believe in

Give the gift that keeps on giving

Share the Jesus in your heart
