I Celebrate the Day
And with this Christmas wish is missed
The point I could convey
If only I could find the words to say to let You know
How much You've touched my life because
Here is where You're finding me
In the exact same place as New Year's Eve
And from the lack of my persistency
We're less than half as close as I wanna be
And the first time that You opened Your eyes
Did You realize that You would be my Savior?
And the first breath that left Your lips
Did You know that it would change this world forever?
And the first time that You opened Your eyes
Did You realize that You would be my Savior?
And the first breath that left Your lips
Did You know that it would change this world forever?
And so this Christmas, I'll compare
The things I've felt in prior years
To what this midnight made so clear
That You have come to meet me here
To look back and think that
This Baby would one day save me
And the hope that, that You give
That You were born so I might really live
To look back and think that
This Baby will one day save me
The first time that You opened Your eyes
Did You realize that You would be my Savior?
And the first breath that left Your lips
Did You know that it would change this world forever?
And the first time that You opened Your eyes
Did You realize that You would be my Savior?
And the first breath that left Your lips
Did You know that it would change this world forever?
And I, I celebrate the day that You were born to die
So I could one day pray for You to save my life
Pray for You to save my life
Pray for You to save my life
The point I could convey
If only I could find the words to say to let You know
How much You've touched my life because
Here is where You're finding me
In the exact same place as New Year's Eve
And from the lack of my persistency
We're less than half as close as I wanna be
And the first time that You opened Your eyes
Did You realize that You would be my Savior?
And the first breath that left Your lips
Did You know that it would change this world forever?
And the first time that You opened Your eyes
Did You realize that You would be my Savior?
And the first breath that left Your lips
Did You know that it would change this world forever?
And so this Christmas, I'll compare
The things I've felt in prior years
To what this midnight made so clear
That You have come to meet me here
To look back and think that
This Baby would one day save me
And the hope that, that You give
That You were born so I might really live
To look back and think that
This Baby will one day save me
The first time that You opened Your eyes
Did You realize that You would be my Savior?
And the first breath that left Your lips
Did You know that it would change this world forever?
And the first time that You opened Your eyes
Did You realize that You would be my Savior?
And the first breath that left Your lips
Did You know that it would change this world forever?
And I, I celebrate the day that You were born to die
So I could one day pray for You to save my life
Pray for You to save my life
Pray for You to save my life
