The Greatest Gift of All

Dolly Parton · Once Upon a Christmas (wKenny Rogers) [1984]

(John B. Jarvis)



Dawn is slowly breaking our friends have all gone home

You and I are waiting for Santa Clause to come

There's a present by the tree, stockings on the wall

And knowing you're in love with me is the greatest gift of all.



The fire is slowly fading, chill is in the air

All the gifts are waiting for children everywhere

Through the window I can see snow begin to fall

Knowing you're in love with me is the greatest gift of all.



Just before I go to sleep I hear a church bell ring

Merry Christmas everyone is the song it sings

So I say a silent prayer for creatures great and small

Peace on Earth, good will to men is the greatest gift of all.



Peace on Earth, good will to men is the greatest gift of all...
