about

This is actually an Advent Song setting the theme for this album: Before I get distracted, cut out the clutter and remind me what the real story is here. It's a reminder we all can use from year to year as the commercial aspects of the season invade our lives.

A pdf of the sheet music for this piece and a video version are included with the full album download.

lyrics

‘Fore I box up all those presents to go underneath the tree,
‘fore I take that one horse open sleigh ride, please remind me,
‘fore I sing familiar songs, ‘bout Santa’s reindeer team,
‘foreI forget what Christmas really means...

Tell me the old story that we all should know so well.
Tell me how the people longed for Emmanuel.
Tell me ‘bout the census and Joseph’s angel dream.
Sing me Mary’s song - what Christmas really means.

Don’t let me forget the one I love.
Don’t let me forget the holy one.
Lead me back to where it all began.
And, set me on that winding road to Bethlehem.

Don’t let me forget the one I love.
Don’t let me forget the holy one.
Lead me back to where it all began.
And, set me on that winding road to Bethlehem.

So when we unwrap those presents with our friends and family,
don’t forget the greatest gift the world has received.
Don’t forget the story ‘bout the coming of God’s son.
Don’t forget to spread the news how sin’s been overcome.

Don’t let me forget the one I love.
Don’t let me forget the holy one.
Lead me back to where it all began.
And, set me on that winding road to Bethlehem.

Yes, set me on that winding road to Bethlehem.
