Story Behind The Song
This a collaboration that I did with the very talented Nigel Barrett on Nigel's song The Meaning Of Christmas. The story is about a man who is visited by his grandchildren and realizes that the children do not know the real meaning of Christmas - so he reads the bible to them and the children realize what the angel on the tree really means.

Lyrics
The fire is glowing, the children gather round
They talk of Santa and dream aloud, they dream aloud
The snow is falling, it's falling down, the children run out and dance around, they dance around
But do they know the meaning
Do they know the meaning
It's all about Your love
About Your Love
Your Holy Son
Do they know the meaning
Lord I read your word, their eyes a glow
The children love it so
So I read some more, I read some more,
their eyes a glow, I read some more
They see the angel on the tree
They see the star upon the door
Now they know the meaning
Now they know the meaning
Now they know the meaning
