Lyrics
Grandpa, please tell us again
Of how it used to be
'Cause Christmas was my favorite time
When I sat on your knee
I go back as we gather 'round
And love the gifts you gave
The wood you carved with your own hands
The love was all homemade
Chorus:
His hands told a story
Of the love he gave
His hands told a story
Of his strong but gentle ways
And his hand took mine
Every Christmastime
God's love came to me that day
Every year I'd hear of Christmas long ago
Of the manger and the child
We'd all come to know
Grandpa kept carving with each passing year
And then he passed away one day
But I'll always feel him near
(Repeat Chorus)
