Don't Forget The Star
Little boy, six years old, sitting on his Grandpa's knee
Little did he know it way back then
But he was making Christmas memories
Grandpa asked that little boy
"What does Christmas really mean to you?"
And the boy talked of snow
And stockings and toys, all shiny and new
Grandpa laughed and shook his head and said
"Let me tell you what it means to me"
And he held that little boy close
As he pointed to the top of the Christmas tree he said
Don't forget the star this Christmas
Don't forget the greatest gift of all
The one who came to shine away the dark
Bringing hope for every heart this Christmas
Don't forget the star
Don't forget the star
Little boys grow up too fast
And those memories, they sure do fade
And that Christmas Eve with Grandpa
Seems about a million miles away
These days the bills are piling up
And the world is weighing down
He's got a little girl of his own
And he knows grown men don't cry
But as that girl looks in his eyes
He remembers his Grandpa's song
Don't forget the star this Christmas
Don't forget the greatest gift of all
The one who came to shine away the dark
Bringing hope for every heart this Christmas
Don't forget the star
It was shining bright in the eastern sky
Above a manger, two thousand years ago
And it fills my heart with joy
To realize that star's still guiding lost souls home
And I think about Grandpa as I raise my daughter high
And she hangs a star upon the tree
And a tear comes to my eye as I think about the way that
Jesus was born for you and me
Don't forget the star this Christmas
Don't forget the greatest gift of all
The one who came to shine away the dark
Bringing hope for every heart, no, no
Don't forget the star this Christmas
Don't forget the greatest gift of all
The one who came to shine away the dark
Bringing hope for every heart this Christmas
Don't forget the star
Don't forget the star
