We all got a lot of family to see Gifts stacked up all under the tree Santa Clause ads all on the TV But let's find the roots of that Christmas tree Take it back, before there was a you and me Take it back, before there was a Christmas tree Take it back, before there was a star to see Take it back, back, back, back 800 BC Isaiah telling stories of a fatherless son A light of the world, bringing peace for everyone Same blood line as David and Solomon He'll choose the right and reject the wrong Psalms coulda had at least one more song Micah 5 speaks of a ruler too For this Virgin birth, that's what our God can do Skip 800 years then we're up to Matthew Mary engaged with everything planned Then news she's pregnant, will Joseph understand You can trust a girl, but man you never know Safest option, get divorced on the low Then an Angel appeared one day in a dream Told him don't be afraid, things aren't as they seem Name the boy Jesus, it's part of God's scheme Prophecy fulfilled, Mary and Joseph a team See the star, shining bright In the sky this Christmas night See the star, shining bright In the sky this Christmas night Trala -la-la la, la la la la Trala -la-la la, la la la la Tra-la-la, la- la la la Tra-la-la, la- la la la Now the Romans want a census to get their tax right To you place of birth please, don't put up a fight Nazareth to Bethlehem, 4 days, 4 nights Mary due to pop, can you imagine the sight? Travel carefully, there's bandits at night Villains at night, goons at night Finally they reach, and there's no harm done Mary breathing heavy, labour pains coming on Joseph find a room, go, hurry, run Joseph find a room, go hurry, run Every door he's knocking on, saying there's none Every door he's knocking on, saying there's none Looks like a manger's where you're having your son We see the glory a God being revealed Angels appear to Shepherds out in the field Like don't be afraid, I got good news Joy for all people, gentiles and Jews A saviour is born, no need to mourn Go to the Messiah that's our requests Peace to all on whom, his favour rests So the Shepherds found Mary, say what they heard Whole room amazed, hang on every word So go spread what you heard, The word became flesh and the flesh became word See the star, shining bright In the sky this Christmas night See the star, shining bright In the sky this Christmas night Trala -la-la la, la la la la Trala -la-la la, la la la la Tra-la-la, la- la la la Tra-la-la, la- la la la You can put up your lights, or you can watch tv But the meaning of Christmas, ain't under no tree It could be all white, Mariah Carey CD But the meaning of Christmas, ain't under no tree You can put up your lights, or you can watch tv But the meaning of Christmas, ain't under no tree It could be all white, Mariah Carey CD But the meaning of Christmas, ain't under no tree Now the magi from the east, still didn't know a thing Showed up to Herod's Palace, looking for a King We been following a star, and we come real far Let us worship please, look at what are gifts are Now this troubled Herod, Jerusalem too We already got a king, we don't need no one new But here's the plan, do what you gotta do Go into Bethlehem, and find out who Then let us know, so I can worship too They left the palace and found the boy They worshipped, gave gifts more precious than a toy Gold, frankincense and myrrh Gifts fit for a King, I'm sure you concur They all got warned bout Herod in a dream So they took a different route to avoid the regime Joseph warned to escape to Egypt He followed the script, and off they slipped They left Herod angry, what did he do? Kill every baby boy, under two When Herod died, things became routine Christ returned home, the Nazarene And we call that… Christmas See the star, shining bright In the sky this Christmas night See the star, shining bright In the sky this Christmas night Trala -la-la la, la la la la Trala -la-la la, la la la la Tra-la-la, la- la la la Tra-la-la, la- la la la
