"The First Christmas" lyrics

"The First Christmas"

He was just a baby
The only Son of Man
They all came to see Him
Three wise men to Bethlehem
Baring gifts that could not compare
To the gift of eternal life
That our Savior gave to us
That first Christmas night

Don't you know the angels where singing
'Cause they knew all the joy that He was bringing
Oh, I wish I could have been to there
To witness the birth of Christ
And feel what they felt on that
First Christmas night

It must have been a wonderful thrill
To watch Him take His first breathe
And to see His mother Mary hold Him
Close to her chest
How she looked. She looked in His eyes
What it must have been a sight
Wish I felt the love she felt on that
First Christmas night

Don't you know the angels where singing
'Cause they knew all the joy that He was bringing
Oh, I wish I could have been to there
To witness the birth of Christ
And feel what they felt on that
First Christmas night

Oh
Why can't I feel what they felt
On that First Christmas night?
