“God must be Santa Clause at Christmastime”




“God must be Santa Clause at Christmastime”

God must be Santa Clause at Christmastime
When He gave the greatest gift to all mankind
It’s not the kind that you shop and buy
It’s not the one that you have to tie
The Messiah was born for you and me


It wasn’t wrapped with fancy paper, ribbon, or bow
Hidden under a Christmas tree 'cause the world just didn’t know
Wrapped in swaddling clothes as our redeemer
Jesus, Messiah, was born in a manger


Chorus
Jesus came without a bow at Christmastime
Jesus came without a ribbon ‘cause you were on His mind
Jesus came as an unwrapped gift for every boy and girl
Jesus came as a babe to save the world
God must be Santa Clause at Christmastime
‘Cause He showed His greatest love for all to see
God must be Santa Clause at Christmastime
‘Cause He gave the greatest gift to you and me

It was sent with utmost love on Christmas day
When Jesus, Emmanuel was born upon the hay
He was sent on that day from Heaven above
God sent His Son as a gift born out of love


You cannot buy this gift as you will see
The Bible tells us the story of how this gift is free
No money is needed as there is no cost
This gift was given as a sacrifice for the cross


Jesus came without a bow at Christmastime
Jesus came without a ribbon ‘cause you were on His mind
Jesus came as an unwrapped gift for every boy and girl
Jesus came as a babe to save the world
God must be Santa Clause at Christmastime
‘Cause He showed His greatest love for all to see
God must be Santa Clause at Christmastime
‘Cause He gave the greatest gift to you and me (X2)
