'Twas late December the news came
And I got excited, I cried all day
And you were such a lovely, precious sight
When I saw our baby in your eyes

[Chorus:]
It was like falling deep in love
I heard the angels cry above
I felt a blessing straight from God
The day that you gave me a son

I called 'bout everyone I knew
Just think, I'll be a father 'cause of you
There's no greater love than what you gave
A brand new baby on the way

[Chorus:]
Oh such tears of joy, I've never known
I can't remember
It's like a song, I've never heard
I've never sung, but know the words

[Chorus:]
