It Started With A Child

Johnny Reid


Frost on the window
Snow on the ground
Children outside laughing
They all know who's coming to town
Every house on my street
Is covered up in lights
The echo of locals
Singing "O Holy Night"

It all started with a child
And a star up in the sky
A manger and a prayer
Three wise men standing there
The beginning of life
That will forever shine
The greatest gift to all mankind
Started with a child

There's a snowman on the lawn
Angel on the tree
The sound of distant sleigh bells
Sure makes it hard to sleep
People come together
We all pray for peace on Earth
Thank heaven the blessings
Every boy and every girl

(Repeat Chorus)

The greatest gift to all mankind
Started with a child
