"Save A Little Christmas" is an original song written for The First Christmas: The Story of the First Christmas Snow. This song was part of a scene where Father Thomas implores the nuns and the children of the abbey to take down some Christmas decorations they have put up early (right before the scene where Lucas goes into Sister Theresa's office).
ABC Family, which annually aired the special, cut out this song every year due to time restraints.
Lyrics
- Save a little Christmas for Christmas
- Save a little spirit
- Put some love away
- Think about the shepherds in fields as they lay
- And save a little Christmas for Christmas day
- Save a little Christmas for Christmas
- Save a little gladness till the holiday
- Think about the wise men as they made their way
- And save a little Christmas for Christmas day
- Don't hang the mistletoe
- Don't light the tree
- Don't let the fire glow
- Wait patiently
- Don't rush the season, or you will spoil the rhyme
- Christmas was just a day-- not all the time!
- So save a little Christmas for Christmas
- Save a little spirit
- Put some love away
- Think about the manger, the babe in the hay
- And save a little Christmas
- Save a little Christmas
- Save a little Christmas for Christmas Day!
