A Baby Just Like You

The season is upon us now
A time for gifts and giving
And as the year draws to its close
I think about my living.

The Christmas time when I was young,
The magic and the wonder,
But colors dull and candles dim,
And dark my standing under.

O little Zachary, shining light,
You've set my soul to dreaming.
You've given back my joy in life
And filled me with new meaning.

A Savior King was born that day,
A baby just like you,
And as the Magi came with gifts,
I come with my gift, too.

That peace on Earth fills up your time,
That brotherhood surrounds you.
That you may know the warmth of love,
And wrap it all around you.

It's just a wish, a dream I'm told,
From days when I was young.
Merry Christmas, little Zachary!
Merry Christmas, everyone!
Merry Christmas, little Zachary!
Merry Christmas, everyone!
