"The Greatest Gift Ever"

Most people would agree that
Christmas is not just about receiving
But it's about giving
But it's not just about giving gifts
But it's about the greatest gift that was ever given

Its Christmas Eve and I wake up and I'm like eight years old
Jump out my bed
Throw on my house shoes
Put on my robe
Open up my door and now I quickly make it through the house
Man this a silent night
Can't even hear a mouse
Run around my couch and my heart dropped because I'm so surprised
With all these things I'm seeing
I can't believe my eyes
When I went to bed there was nothing there but an empty tree
Now there's presents everywhere
And all these gifts for me
I'm ripping paper off of boxes
Going through bags
Trying clothes on
Poppin' tags
Got everything I want and I ain't even asked
Even got that bike I wanted
Yeah that one with mags
As I got older I learned presents they may come and go
We make Christmas all about gifts
That ain't even what it's for
It wasn't that bike, the clothes, or nothin' I had
I learned that Jesus is the greatest gift I'll ever have

Across the world
Over the sea
Nothing compares
To majesty
And I know you are the greatest gift ever

Across the world
Over the sea
Nothing compares
To majesty
And I know you are the greatest gift ever

Walk into granny's house I smell that food coming through the door
Can't wait to get in there to taste what she's got on the stove
Know she got that turkey roasting
Macaroni with some dressing
Gather round the table family
Bow our heads let's say the blessing
Been a minute since I've seen my Uncle Terry
Laugh with my Uncle Danny
Ain't nothing like your family
Momma sitting up in the kitchen
With Auntie Sallie and Jackie
Nephews they playing with nieces
Everybody playing with
Uncle Andrew know he sitting there watching them games
Uncle Elmo auntie Nicey you know they both doing the same
Granddaddy at the table
Cousin Rickey cracking jokes
Ain't nothing like the holiday getting together with your folks

Let's go

It's been some years but now my granny gone
But we still get together every year granny home
We're blessed to come together
And ain't nobody sad
'Cause before she left she got the greatest gift that she can have

That's Jesus

Across the world
Over the sea
Nothing compares
To majesty
And I know that you are the greatest gift ever

Across the world
Over the sea
Nothing compares
To majesty
And I know you are the greatest gift ever

Across the world

Over the sea

Nothing compares

The greatest gift ever
