The Quiet of Christmas Eve © 2007 Rebecca Dale Peaden (BMI) / Mary Alice Vanderwaters (BMI) Verse The children are tucked in bed and they went without a fight The last gifts are wrapped as the clocked chimes midnight We lay in each others arms, we’re both to tired to sleep But it’s a magical moment in the quiet of Christmas Eve Chorus In the quiet of Christmas Eve we have so much to be thankful for We’ve made it through another year and I could not love you more Some of the things we want are underneath the tree But we have everything we need in the quiet of Christmas Eve Verse We told them a bedtime story of baby Jesus’ birth And that a long, long time ago Jesus lived on earth We celebrate this day with the greatest gift received That is the love that we share in the quiet of Christmas Eve Chorus In the quiet of Christmas Eve we have so much to be thankful for We’ve made it through another year and I could not love you more Some of the things we want are underneath the tree But we have everything we need in the quiet of Christmas Eve Bridge And I don’t think Jesus would have it any other way That we give to each other on His birthday Chorus In the quiet of Christmas Eve we have so much to be thankful for We’ve made it through another year and I could not love you more Some of the things we want are underneath the tree But we have everything we need in the quiet of Christmas Eve
