IT?S THE NIGHT BEFORE X-MAS by David McNeely © 2008 It's the night before X-mas And all through the land Most have forgotten The birth of the lamb They have X'ed out his name From buildings and schools They have X'ed out His theme From the minds of fools The story is forgotten Of a manger's Child Born of a virgin Tender and mild He came to us teaching Love and forgiveness His message so simple His plan so divine The cost for this plan He would eventually pay He paid it in blood For all of us this day For six hours He hung On an Old Rugged Cross The symbol of suffering Salvation for the lost His legacy they would erase In a land full of haste The flag we cannot pledge Because of God's Name they hedge No prayers will be said They cry across this land No prayers to a Savior No prayers to the Lamb For God so loved the world He sent this His only son But many call it X-mas Not believing in the One Christmases come and Christmases go But the Savior will come only once more we know He will come in glory, from the heavenly clouds Those unbelieving will flee in mass crowds On that day every knee will bow The X'es will be humbled Old walls be tumbled As they face their last hour Every tongue will confess Before all the Heavens That Jesus Christ is Lord The saved will rest No X'es will be found, not one will stand In the sight of a Savior, so Mighty and Grand The X'es will moan and groan, teeth shall gnash And Jesus will open the Judgment book at last It's the night before Christmas Isn't it grand my Savior I remember I remember the Lamb It's the night before Christmas His coming is near How many will remember That precious Lamb so dear |
