Lyrics for Song: Happy Birthday Jesus (I'll Open This One for You)
Lyrics for Album: The Christmas Collection [2003]



[spoken]

Now kids, hang on just a second before we start

You know there's a reason we are all here

In front of Grandma and Grandpa's Christmas tree

And if Trevor and E.P. would quit fighting long enough

And be real quiet

This little song might help ya understand



Long ago, in a stable, there was a baby being born

His parents were Joseph and Mary

And Joseph's big ole heart was torn

Cause he couldn't find a decent place

For Mary to have her child

But Mary said, it just seemed just right

And she blessed it with her smile



[chorus]

Cause what made it special was the baby in her arms

God sent Him down to give the world

A second chance for you and I

That's why we have Christmas at this time each year

It's the baby's birthday party that brings us so much cheer



[spoken]

Now kids, the presents that all of you exchange on Christmas

Represents the gifts that baby Jesus received the night He was born

He got all His presents from three wise men

Who followed a star

And walked a long, long way to the stable

So everytime you tear open one of your presents

Think about that baby and say

"Happy birthday Jesus

I'll open this one for You"



[chorus]



[spoken]

OK, all together now

"Happy Birthday Jesus

I'll open this one just for You"
