03. The Heart Of Christmas

The Heart of Christmas
by Matthew West



 

I’m gonna make a wish this Christmas / I’m gonna say a
little prayer / I’m gonna stop here for a moment / Before the
moment disappears // The world’s in a hurry this December
/ City streets and shopping malls / I wish we could slow
down and remember / The meaning of it all // Wherever you
are, no matter how far / Come back to the heart, the heart
of Christmas / Live while you can, cherish the moment / The
ones that you love, make sure they know it / Don’t miss it,
the heart of Christmas // Let’s make it feel the way it used
to / Let’s find that wonder of a child / You can see the magic
all around you / Come on, and open up your eyes // You can
find it in the warm embrace of your family / Or calling up a
long lost friend / You can even find it in the eyes of stranger
/ When you reach out a helping hand // In the shadow of a
steeple / In a star that lights the way / You will find Him in
a manger / The heart of Christmas has a name // I’m gonna
make a wish this Christmas / I’m gonna say a little prayer
