When I was growing up,
we learn about Christ birth.
And we always heard,
pray for peace on earth.
When I was growing up,
 we had the five and dimes.
We bought needed gifts,
we read Psalms and rhymes.
When I was growing up,
we didn't have that much.
We always wrote letters,
we always kept in touch.
When I was growing up,
we tried doing what we should.
And we always wondered,
did we do all we could?
When I was growing up,
it wasn't about the tree,
Christmas was about Jesus,
what Christmas should be.
