God Is My Santa Claus
Recorded by Hank Snow
Written by W.K. Shewmake


G                                       C
In a classroom at the grade school just before the holidays
    D7                                             G
The boys and girls were writing notes to Santa far away
                               C
Expect a lad who sat alone his paper put away
    A7                             D7
And when his teacher asked him why so softly he did say

    G                     D7
For God is my Santa Claus each and every day
                                                 G
I don't write Him letters ma'am I just kneel and pray
                                    C
Don't you know His greatest gift salvation is I found
D7                                               G
God to be my Santa Claus each day the whole year round

                                        C
Then the teacher stood in silence after what the child had said
   D7                                                     G
He really knew real Christmas day and not from books he'd read
                                  C
He truly met real Santa Clause he said in just one word
    A7                                  D7
God gave us Christ for Christmas day my Santa Clause is God

    G                     D7
For God is my Santa Claus each and every day
                                                 G
I don't write Him letters ma'am I just kneel and pray
                                 C
Do you know His greatest gift salvation is I found
D7                                               G
God to be my Santa Claus each day the whole year round
