Wake Up! It's Christmas Morning
by B.J. Thomas

In my mind there is bread on the table
Wood on the fire
In my mind we are gathered together
To celebrate our heart's desire
I close my eyes I see a prince on a camel
A shepherd boy running fast
Both headed in the same direction
Towards a baby in the grass

And I see as generations pass
The miracle gets harder to behold
In a dream I'm face to face with my Lord
This is what I'm told

Wake up it's Christmas morning
Wake up there's work to be done
Gather 'round you band of angels
Gather 'round the permanent One
Wake up it's Christmas morning
Wake up it's Christmas morning
Come and behold the broken hearted
It's for their sake
He has come

Im my mind I see a revolution
Fought for those in need
Led by a Man with a great ambition
For hungry hearts to feed
And this leader
He is gentle and kind
He carries no weapons at all
Just the life that was given to the lost and forgotten
That I might heed His call

Wake up it's Christmas morning
Wake up there's work to be done
Gather 'round you band of angels
Gather 'round the permanent One
Wake up it's Christmas morning
Wake up it's Christmas morning
Come and behold the broken hearted
It's for their sake
He has come

Emanuel behold Him
Emanuel behold Him
Emanuel behold Him
Emanuel behold Him
Emanuel behold Him
Emanuel behold Him
Emanuel behold Him

Ohhh
In my mind I see a worried father
Keeping warm wrapping tight
In my mind I see a loving mother
Cradle Him through the night
And in comes a shepherd boy
Arriving at his destination proud
Well I wonder if he knew
What that child was gonna do
When the angels were talking about

Wake Up It's Christmas morning
Wake up there's work to be done
Gather 'round you band of angels
Gather 'round the permanent One
Wake up it's Christmas morning
Wake up it's Christmas morning
Come and behold the broken hearted
It's for their sake
He has come

Ohh ohhh
It's for their sake he has come
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up It's Christmas morning
Wake up there's work to be done
Gather 'round
Gather 'round
Gather 'round the permanent One
Wake up
Wake up there's work to be done
Gather 'round
Come on
Gather 'round the permanent One
