Lyrics

The Greatest Christmas Gift of All

I can still remember
Mama's love and Christmas past
Those special times still in my mind
Though the years slipped by too fast
Never had a lot of gifts
Mama did the best she could
And always stopped to praise the Lord
Songs of love and brotherhood

CHORUS 1
She said tomorrow is a special day
It's the day when He was born
That baby in a manger
Who had come to save the world
God gave His Son to teach us
So that when we get the call
He'll meet us in His Kingdom
The greatest Christmas gift of all

It's been a while now
But it's still hard to believe
The call that came and changed my life
On that cold cold Christmas eve
Mama wasn't doing well
I should get there if I could
Before my bag was even packed
I heard her voice and understood

CHORUS 2
She said tomorrow is a special day
It's the day when He was born
That baby in a manger
Who had come to save the world
He brought me here to meet Him
'Bout the time you got that call
I want to let you know son
I have the greatest gift of all

I still hear her singing
Mama's praising Him in song
Her gown of white and candlelight
Now she's right where she belongs
In the first row of His choir
Reaching down to keep me strong
I pray some day I'll join her
To hold her hand and sing along

CHORUS 3
Yes tomorrow is a special day
It's the day when He was born
That baby in a manger
Who had come to save the world
Mama taught me how to love Him
And His creatures great and small
One day I'll walk into His Kingdom
The greatest Christmas gift of all

Yeh Mama taught me how to love Him
And His creatures great and small
One day I'll walk into His kingdom
My greatest Christmas gift of all

One day she'll greet me in His kingdom
My greatest Christmas gift of all
