From the recording Our Savior Is Born
Lyrics
Proud To Be An Evergreen
[Verse]
Oh, here I stand, in evergreen pride,
With ribbons and lights, a glow to abide.
The fireplace hums, its flickering tune,
Casting my shimmer ‘cross the room.
[Prechorus]
I’ve waited all year for this joyful spree,
Life’s quite a thrill for a Christmas tree!
[Chorus]
Gather ‘round, oh, come and see,
The laughter, the love, surrounding me.
Through sparkling boughs, His light I share,
A gift of grace in the frosty air.
[Verse 2]
Tiny hands hang treasures on me,
Stars and angels, a jubilee.
Their giggles rise like the chimney’s smoke,
Each bauble a memory, each garland bespoke.
[Bridge]
Oh, the joy, the cheer, the sweet refrain,
Families united, love remains.
Through tinsel and tears, I witness it all,
A silent watcher of this season’s call.
[Chorus]
Gather ‘round, oh, come and see,
The laughter, the love, surrounding me.
Through sparkling boughs, His light I share,
A gift of grace in the frosty air.
