Original lyrics
ENSanta knows what I want for Christmas
but Jesus knows what I need
it can't be purchased wrapped up and placed
under an ephod tree
I need patience, kindness - virtues like these
to bend on my knee at the manger
Santa may bring these that last for a year
but eternal gifts come from the Savior
some days come where I'm playing selfish
I can't think of no one but me
then I think of all that I'm blessed with
and that's always best to give than to receive
I need faithfulness, love, generosity
to open my home to a stranger
Santa may bring things that last for a year
but eternal gifts come from the Savior
I need patience, kindness, generosity
to bend on my knee at the manger
Santa may bring things that last for a year
but eternal gifts come from the Savior
Santa knows what I want for Christmas
but Jesus knows what I need
