Oh Mother Christ, her child's asleep No room in hearts for what runs deep
She gave the world a king that night But now her story's out of sight
We dress the trees, we hang the wreaths While heaven weeps, the Savior grieves
The world he came to save has strayed Lost in the noise of a busy holiday
Do you see what we've forgotten? The holy child, the manger trodden
We've forgotten to teach and preach We've forgotten to nourish the souls we reach
Oh, we've traded truth for fleeting bliss And raised our kids on Christmas list
But there's no Christmas without this A cross, a crown, a hope so pure
And the message that he's returning for sure
The angels sang, the shepherds knelt A moment when true hope was felt
But now we bow to golden things And this, the joy his presence brings
The carols have faded, the candles burn Yet hearts refuse to truly turn
A season meant for love and grace Replaced by rush and frantic pace
Do you see what we've forgotten? The holy child, the manger trodden
We've forgotten to teach and preach We've forgotten to nourish the souls we reach
Oh, we've traded truth for fleeting bliss And raised our kids on Christmas list
But there's no Christmas without this A cross, a crown, a hope so pure
And the message that he's returning for sure
What if the lights went dark tonight? Would we remember heaven's light
What if the gifts were all set aside? Would we see the star that still abides
Oh, Christmas calls for hearts to break For us to kneel, for us to wake
The stable waits, the cradles bare A silent plea hangs in the air
Will we return? Will we believe? Or let him stand outside in grief
This holy night, let's make it new And find the Christ who waits for you
Let's bow in awe, let's lift his name And make his love our only aim
Do you see what we've forgotten? The holy child, the manger trodden
We've forgotten to teach and preach We've forgotten to nourish the souls we reach
Oh, we've traded truth for fleeting bliss And raised our kids on Christmas list
But there's no Christmas without this A cross, a crown, a hope so pure
And the message that he's returning for sure
Do you see what we've forgotten? The holy child, the manger trodden
We've forgotten to teach and preach We've forgotten to nourish the souls we reach
Oh, we've traded truth for fleeting bliss And raised our kids on Christmas list
But there's no Christmas without this A cross, a crown, a hope so pure
And the message that he's returning for sure
A cross, a crown, a hope so pure And the message that he's returning for sure

Oh Mother Christ, her child's asleep No room in hearts for what runs deep
She gave the world a king that night But now her story's out of sight
We dress the trees, we hang the wreaths While heaven weeps, the Savior grieves
The world he came to save has strayed Lost in the noise of a busy holiday
Do you see what we've forgotten? The holy child, the manger trodden
We've forgotten to teach and preach We've forgotten to nourish the souls we reach
Oh, we've traded truth for fleeting bliss And raised our kids on Christmas list

But there's no Christmas without this A cross, a crown, a hope so pure
And the message that he's returning for sure
What if the lights went dark tonight? Would we remember heaven's light
What if the gifts were all set aside? Would we see the star that still abides
Oh, Christmas calls for hearts to break For us to kneel, for us to wake
The stable waits, the cradles bare A silent plea hangs in the air
