The Heart of Christmas - Matthew West

I’m gonna make a wish this Christmas

I’m gonna say a little prayer

I’m gonna stop here for a moment

Before the moment disappears

The world’s in a hurry this December

City streets and shopping malls

I wish we could slow down and remember

The meaning of it all

Wherever you are, no matter how far

Come back to the heart, the heart of Christmas

Live while you can, cherish the moment

The ones that you love, make sure they know it Don’t miss it, the heart of Christmas

Let’s make it feel the way it used to Let’s find that wonder of a child

You can see the magic all around you

Come on, and open up your eyes

You can find it in the warm embrace of your family

Or calling up a long lost friend

You can even find it in the eyes of stranger

When you reach out a helping hand

Wherever you are, no matter how far

Come back to the heart, the heart of Christmas

Live while you can, cherish the moment

The ones that you love, make sure they know it Don’t miss it, the heart of Christmas

In the shadow of a steeple

In a star that lights the way

You will find Him in a manger

The heart of Christmas has a name

I’m gonna make a wish this Christmas

I’m gonna say a little prayer

Wherever you are, no matter how far

Come back to the heart, the heart of Christmas

Live while you can and cherish the moment

The ones that you love, make sure they know it Wherever you are, no matter how far

Come back to the heart, the heart of Christmas

Live while you can, cherish the moment

The ones that you love, make sure they know it Don’t miss it, the heart of Christmas
