Merry Christmas!



One Little Christmas Tree

One little Christmas tree was standing alone
Waiting for someone to come by
One little Christmas tree that never had grown
Cried as he looked up to the sky,
"Oh please Mr. Father Tree, the tallest of all,
I'm so afraid and so alone
Could one little Christmas tree
So tiny and small light up someone's home?"
'Cause one little Christmas tree can light up a home
So one little child can find a toy
One little Christmas tree can light up a home
So one little heart can find some joy
One little angel who was riding a star
Cried as she looked down at the tree,
"Oh please Mr. Father Tree, wherever you are
May I give him the star you gave to me?"
Then in the heavens came a voice from afar
A voice that was heard throughout the world,
"Go down little angel girl and give him your star,
Tonight he'll light the world"
'Cause one little Christmas tree
Can light up the world
So those who are lost may find their way
One little Christmas tree can light up the world
So all men may see on Christmas day
One little Christmas tree
Can light up the world
So those who are lost may find their way
One little Christmas tree can light up the world
So all men may see on Christmas day
One little Christmas tree
Can light up the world
So those who are lost may find their way

Despite her young age, Aretha could sing and she would attract churchgoers from all around to hear her. That she was so young was amazing, but certainly her audiences must have realized that bigger things lay ahead for her. Little Aretha taught herself how to play the piano and amazed everyone around her, including motherly figure Mahalia Jackson, who was a gospel star herself. Her father began to see that his daughter could do more with her voice than just attract people to hear about the Lord- she could use her god given gift to sing to the world. Her father avoided the obvious record company- Motown- as he felt his daughter would get lost among all the other African-American acts signed there. Certainly Columbia Records could advance his daughter’s career; she’d be one of their few “r
