On This Day Lyrics - Christmas Songs 2

The kids were up before dawn this morning 

Right to the Christmas tree they ran 

Called up the stairs for us to hurry 

Wait for this day for about as long as they could stand 

While trading presents the little one asks me 

Why do we have Christmas each year 

I said long ago a child was born this day 

He's a gift more precious then all you see here 

Cause on this day 

A child was born 

In the town of Bethlehem 

And on this day 

God sent his son to bring peace and goodwill 

To all men 

Oh on this day we call Christmas 

We honor his name 

On this day 

We recall all the reasons he came 

On this day 

On this day 

Grandma and Grandpa arrived after breakfast 

The rest of the gang by noon 

We spent the day watching football and breaking in toys 

Helping out in the kitchen 

Catching up on old news 

When the dinner bell rang 

We all took our places 

Grandpa said who wants to say grace 

Before anyone else could utter a word 

Oh the little one bowed her head 

And she started to say 

Cause on this day 

A child was born 

In the town of Bethlehem 

And on this day 

God sent his son to bring peace and goodwill 

To all men 

Oh on this day we call Christmas 

We honor his name 

On this day 

We recall all the reasons he came 

On this day 

On this day 

Oh on this day we call Christmas 

We honor his name 

On this day 

We recall all the reasons he came 

On this day 

On this day
