“Christmas Time at Grandpa’s” Verse 1 Christmas time at Grandpa’s Taught me to truly believe That the Spirit of the Christ Child Was alive that Christmas Eve No silver bells or storefront lights Just a quiet holy calm Heaven felt so close that night In Grandma’s living room warmth Verse 2 He and Grandma had a tree Like none I’d ever seen Fireplace light would flicker Make that old tree dance and lean The bows were tied with ribbons Cotton balls hung low Firelight on the wall behind Made the shadows softly glow Chorus Strings of popcorn hung so gentle A paper angel on top That simple little Christmas tree Made your whole heart stop Just like that simple nativity On that lowly, holy night Grandpa’s simple Christmas tree Made the season feel just right Verse 3 Grandma told the Christmas story ’Bout a baby born that day Said because of Jesus’ coming He brought goodwill on His way I forgot the lights we strung outside Around our house and door ’Cause that simple little tree Meant so much more Chorus Strings of popcorn hung so gentle A paper angel on top That simple little Christmas tree Made your whole heart stop Just like that simple nativity On that lowly, holy night Grandpa’s simple Christmas tree Made the season feel just right Bridge No glitter, gold, or grandeur No show to steal the scene Just love, faith, and family And what Christmas really means Final Chorus (soft, then lift) So enjoy the Christmas spirit In your own special way And remember the birth of Jesus Is the reason we celebrate Yeah, remember the birth of Jesus Is the reason we celebrate Outro Christmas time at Grandpa’s… Still lives in me today Merry Christmas.
