God Is My Santa Claus lyrics

In a classroom at the grade school

Just before the holidays

The boys and girls were writing notes

To Santa far away

Except a lad who sat alone

His paper put away

And when his teacher asked him why

So softly he did say

For God is my Santa Claus

Each and every day

I don't write Him letters, ma'am

I just kneel and pray

Don't you know His greatest gift

Salvation is, I found

God to be my Santa Claus

Each day, the whole year round

Then the teacher stood in silence

After what the child had said

He really knew real Christmas Day

And not from books he'd read

He truly met real Santa Claus

He said in just one word

God gave us Christ for Christmas Day

My Santa Claus is God

(God is my Santa Claus

Each and every day

I don't write Him letters, ma'am

I just kneel and pray)

Do you know His greatest gift

Salvation is, I found

God to be my Santa Claus

Each day, the whole year round
