Ray Boltz – The Perfect Tree lyrics
The ornaments are ready
The place has been prepared
Strings of lights and holly
Are draped across the chair
The family's all together
I know where they must be
Everyone is searching
For the perfect tree
Chorus:
The perfect tree
Grew very long ago
And it was not decked with silver
Or with ornaments of gold
But hanging from it's branches
Was a gift for you and me
Jesus laid His life down
On the perfect tree
Mother wants a straight one
The children want it tall
Dad just hopes that somehow
He can get it down the hall
Soon they'll gather round it
As proud as they can be
But when they're looking at it
I wonder if they see
Chorus (repeat)
With all the celebrations
Sometimes the truth is lost
That every step this baby took
Brought Him closer to the cross
Chorus (repeat 2X)
The place has been prepared
Strings of lights and holly
Are draped across the chair
The family's all together
I know where they must be
Everyone is searching
For the perfect tree
Chorus:
The perfect tree
Grew very long ago
And it was not decked with silver
Or with ornaments of gold
But hanging from it's branches
Was a gift for you and me
Jesus laid His life down
On the perfect tree
Mother wants a straight one
The children want it tall
Dad just hopes that somehow
He can get it down the hall
Soon they'll gather round it
As proud as they can be
But when they're looking at it
I wonder if they see
Chorus (repeat)
With all the celebrations
Sometimes the truth is lost
That every step this baby took
Brought Him closer to the cross
Chorus (repeat 2X)
