Daddy's Christmas Eve - The Oak Ridge Boys

Staring at the Christmas tree, I guess I couldn’t sleep

The pretty lights hypnotize me and I begin to think

Seems like only yesterday that I was just a boy

Dreaming of a reindeer sleigh and Santa’s bag of toys

A lot of years have slipped on by;

a lot of things have changed

But the magic of this special night somehow remains the same

I’m so thankful for my little ones: Oh, how I love them so

I know, God, how you must have felt, on that Christmas long ago

You must have cried a million tears on that first Christmas Eve

You knew your one and only Son would someday die for me

Staring out my window, I can see the Christmas star

It seems a little brighter now than it had been before

Help me be the kind of Dad that you would have me be

I guess I’ll go on up to bed, thank you, Lord, for Christmas Eve

I guess I’ll go on up to bed, thank you, Lord, for Christmas Eve…
