Texty: Randy Travis. The Gift.

He was born in Bethlehem they say
There was a star to light the path to where He lay
Rich or poor, they came from far and near
'Cause they'd all heard the reason He was here

He was the Son, God sent to one and all
Put on this earth to hang there on that cross
Born to die so we could live
He had the birthday, we got the gift

They wrapped Him up with gentle hands
God hoped the world would understand
Eternal life we shall receive
And all that He asks in return is that we just believe

He was the Son, God sent to one and all
Put on this earth to hang there on that cross
Born to die so we could live
He had the birthday, we got the gift

There's no way in this world we could repay
The miracle He gave us on that day

He was the Son, God sent to one and all
Put on this earth to hang there on that cross
Born to die so we could live
He had the birthday, we got the gift
On our Savior's birthday, we got the gift
