Don't Forget The Star - Sidewalk Prophets

Little boy six year old, sitting on his Grandpa’s knee

Little did he know it way back then, but he was makin' Christmas a memory

Grandpa asked that little boy, «What does Christmas really mean to you?»

And the boy talked of snowand stockings and toys all shiny and new

Grandpa laughed and shook his head and said, «Let me tell you what it means to

me»

And he held that little boy close as he pointed to the top of the Christmas

tree he said

Don’t forget the star this Christmas

Don’t forget the greatest gift of all

The One who came to shine away the dark

Bringin' hope for every heart this Christmas

Don’t forget the star

Don’t forget the star

Little boys grow up too fast, and those mem’ries they sure do fade

And that Christmas Eve with Grandpa seems about a million miles away

These days the bills are piling' up, and the world is weighing down

He’s got a little girl of his own, need he knows grown men don’t cry

But as that girl looks in his eyes, he remembers his Grandpa’s song

Don’t forget the star this Christmas

Don’t forget the greatest gift of all

The One who came to shine away the dark

Bringin' hope for every heart this Christmas

Don’t forget the star

It was shining' bright in the eastern sky, bove a manger two thousand years ago

And it fills my heart with joy to realize that star still guidin' lost souls

home

And I think about Grandpa as I raise my daughter high, as she hangs a star upon

the tree

And a tear comes to my eye, as I think about the way that

Jesus was bought for you and me

Don’t forget the star this Christmas

Don’t forget the greatest gift of all

The One who came to shine away the dark

Bringin' hope for every heart this Christmas

Don’t forget the star this Christmas

Don’t forget the greatest gift of all

The One who came to shine away the dark

Bringin' hope for every heart this Christmas

Don’t forget the star

Don’t forget the star

Don’t forget the star
