The Best Present

Listen children and hear me well
Christmas is the time to tell
Your parents what it really takes
Not bicycles or shining skates
Not trees nor wrappings or throw away things
Nor cards or letters that the postman brings

We all know what to tell
What really dings a big big bell
It’s the time we spend the time we take
To prove our love and more to make
It’s peace and laughter that we bring
To each new day and to each new thing
