On This Day - The Hit Crew
The kids were up before dawn this morning
Straight to the Christmas tree they ran
They called up the stairs for us to hurry
They'd waited for this day about as long as they could stand
While trading presents the little one ask me
Why do we have Christmas each year
I said long ago a child was born on this day
He's gift more precious and all we 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
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
And when that dinner bell rang
We all took our places
Grandpa said who wants to say grace
But before anyone else could utter a word
Oh the little one bowed her head
And then she started to say
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
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 oh on this day
