Christmas I've Had

Christmas I've Had

[Verse 1]
I've never had a roasted chestnut.
I've never had plum pudding. 
The closest I've been to a hallmark Christmas,
Is candy canes and hot chocolate.

I've never been to Bethlehem.
I've never lived just like Mary.
I closest I've come to seeing Jesus,
Is when I asked Him in my heart.

[Chorus]
Come to Bethlehem and see
Baby Jesus, carpenter's son.
The Messiah of all people,
Christmas the birth of a King.

[Verse 2]
I've always wanted presents under the tree.
I've always wanted the snow.
The closest I've been to a hallmark Christmas,
Is shopping mall Santa's knee.

I've always wanted to see the Lord.
I've always wanted to sing His name.
I closest I've come to seeing Jesus,
Is seeing Him up on the cross.

[Chorus]
Come to Bethlehem and see
Baby Jesus, carpenter's son.
The Messiah of all people,
Christmas the birth of a King.

[Bridge]
Jesus, I've seen Him die.
Jesus, I've seen Him arrive.
Jesus, I've seen Him rise.
And that is what's special
This Christmas day.

[Chorus]
Come to Bethlehem and see
Baby Jesus, carpenter's son.
The Messiah of all people,
Christmas the birth of a King.
