10 Lesser known Christmas songs 10 Eternal Gifts

This Kate York compostion is on Leigh Nash's Waiting for this

Santa knows what I want for Christmas
But Jesus knows what I need
It can't be purchased wrapped up and placed
Under an eight foot 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 Saviour

Some days come where I'm plain selfish
I can't think of no one but me
Then I think of all that I'm blessed with
And how it'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 Saviour

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 Saviour
