Lyrics[]

Matthew: What if I told you you have the power

To give someone hope far beyond their wildest dreams

What if I told you it’s right there in your hands

In your hands

It's hard to imagine how something so small

Can make all the difference Tear down the tallest wall

What if December looked different this year?

What if we all just

Give this Christmas away

If there’s love in your heart

Don’t let it stay there

Give this Christmas away

And your life will be changed

By the gift you receive

When you give this Christmas away

(Give it away, give Christmas away)

Amy It’s feeding the hungry it’s serving the poor

It’s telling the orphan you’re not forgotten anymore

Matthew and Amy: It’s doing what love does

Even when no one’s watching you

Give this Christmas away

If there’s love in your heart

Don’t let it stay there

Give this Christmas away

And your life will be changed

By the gift you receive

When you give this Christmas away

For God so loved the world, He gave His only son

So we could be His hands, His feet, His love

His love

Matthew: What if I told you you have the power

To give someone hope far beyond their wildest dreams

Amy and Matthew: What if December looked different this year?

What if we all just

Give this Christmas away

If there’s love in your heart

Don’t let it stay there

Give this Christmas away

And your life will be changed

By the gift you receive

When you give this Christmas away

(Give it away, give Christmas away; this repeats through the final part of the song)

Give this Christmas away

You have the power

Just give it away

Kids: Give it away, give it away

Give it away, give it away

Give it away
