He Is The Gift
We can get caught up in all sorts of busy things during the Christmas season. But all the things we see–the lights, the trees, the presents, the goodwill–all of it is because of Jesus. He is the light that shines from the star and He is the peace we feel at this special time of year. No gift is as great as the gift He is to us, “For God so loved the world that He gave His Only Begotten Son” (John 3:16). I hope this song will help you and your family remember Jesus during the Christmas season.

Lyrics
In every star we see
And all the songs we sing
Of shepherds on a hillside,
Of goodwill and peace.
The lights on every tree
And all the gifts we bring
In every part of Christmas
We’ll see our King.
For He is the light that shines
From the star
He is the shepherd watching over us all
And He is the peace
That wise men still seek
A Savior born that we might live
He is the gift
Hope and joy and strength
He offers all our days
Pure and perfect blessings
All wrapped in His grace.
And when the lights come down
The moments disappear
But He who gives us everything
Will still be here.
For He is the light
That shines from the star
He is the shepherd watching over us all
A Savior born that we might live
He is the gift.
