I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I don't need to hang my stocking
There upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won't make me happy
With a toy on Christmas Day
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you
(You, baby)
I won't ask for much this Christmas
I won't even wish for snow (And I)
I'm just gonna keep on waiting
Underneath the mistletoe
I won't make a list and send it
To the North Pole for Saint Nick
I won't even stay awake to
Hear those magic reindeer click
'Cause I just want you here tonight (I just want you here)
Holding on to me so tight (So tight)
What more can I do?
All I want for Christmas is you
(You, baby)
All the lights are shining
So brightly everywhere (Brightly everywher)
And the sound of children's
Laughter fills the air
And everyone is singing
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa, won't you bring me the one I really need?
Won't you please please bring my baby to me?
I don't want a lot for Christmas
This is all I'm asking for
I just wanna see my baby
Standing right outside my door
I just want you for my own (I just want you)
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you
(You) Baby
All I want for Christmas (is you), baby
All I want for Christmas (is you)
"All I Want For Christmas Is You" by JJ Heller is a beautiful and heartfelt song that captures the true essence of Christmas. The song, originally written and performed by Mariah Carey, has become a holiday classic, but JJ Heller's rendition brings a fresh perspective and a touch of Christian inspiration.
At first glance, the song may seem like a simple love song, expressing a desire for someone special during the holiday season. However, when we dig deeper into the lyrics, we can see that there is a much deeper meaning.
The song begins with the lines, "I don't want a lot for Christmas, there is just one thing I need." This immediately sets the tone for the song - it's not about material possessions or extravagant gifts, but about something more meaningful.

This verse reminds us that God came down to earth in the form of Jesus to be with us, to be present with us.
