When the Baby Grew Up

Christmas time, I can smell it, smoke from fires in the air

Hearts prepared for the baby, Anticipation everywhere

Gifts will be given, but let it not be forgotten that

Oh, when the baby grew up, the boy became a man

Oh when the baby grew up, He led my soul to the promised land

Oh, when the baby grew up, the boy became a man

I learned when the baby grew up, what I can’t do, well… love can

Christmas time, I can watch it, Alistair Sim, playing Scrooge,

And I love when he wakes up,

Christmas morning, in a Christmas mood

Singers will be singin’, but let it not be forgotten that

Christmas time, I can feel it, see the pastor shed a tear,

As he reads from the gospels,

the angels to the shepherds “have no fear”

Gifts will be given, singers will be singin’, bells will be ringing

But let it not be forgotten that
