How Did We Live Before Christmas - Mark Lowry[00:00:01]

Christmas comes but once a year [00:00:05]

But what if it came more often [00:00:07]

It would bankrupt the economy [00:00:09]

Snow would surely wreck the ecology [00:00:11]

Kids would sing Jingle Bells till we're up a tree[00:00:13]

And drive us to an early coffin[00:00:16]

Christmas is a yearly thing [00:00:19]

And I'm really glad that it's so[00:00:21]

If it came around every other week [00:00:23]

We'd be so tired we could hardly speak[00:00:25]

Our checkbooks would be up a creek[00:00:28]

And we'd have to shorten ole Santa to just one "Ho "[00:00:31]

Yes once a year it rolls around [00:00:34]

On the 25th day of December[00:00:36]

Bringing cheery songs with cheery rhymes [00:00:39]

And shopping sprees that pass the time[00:00:41]

We have to stand in those weary lines [00:00:44]

And there's always someone I forget to remember[00:00:47]

But think with me for just a while [00:00:51]

Of a time before there was Christmas[00:00:53]

The time before the angels sang [00:00:57]

The time before the wise men came[00:01:00]

The time before we knew His name[00:01:03]

How did we live before Christmas [00:01:07]

The days before the stars so bright [00:01:09]

The years before that Silent Night[00:01:12]

Before the Savior brought the light [00:01:15]

How did we live before Christmas [00:01:18]

Did little children ever sing [00:01:21]

Did silver bells refuse to ring [00:01:24]

Did Hosannahs ever crown the king [00:01:26]

How did we live before Christmas [00:01:29]

Did winter's chill make faces glow [00:01:32]

Did lovers kiss neath mistletoe [00:01:35]

Try as I might I'll never know[00:01:38]

How did we live before Christmas [00:01:42]

A virgin bore the blessed gift of Christmas long ago[00:01:45]

All heaven wrapped in swaddling clothes[00:01:49]

Pure Deity from head to toe[00:01:53]

A baby boy with heaven's glow[00:01:56]

How did we live before Christmas [00:02:00]

So Christmas isn't gifts and toys[00:02:04]

Or waiting on St Nicholas[00:02:07]

Christmas is a Savior's birth[00:02:09]

A gift from heaven sent to earth[00:02:13]

To show the world just what it's worth [00:02:16]

How did we live before Christmas[00:02:22]
