The Missionary Offering Song

They’ll have a blue christmas without you

That’s why we’re taking this offering from you

There’s no red ornaments on a green christmas tree

You think of reindeer, but they see a chimpanzee

And when exchange rates are a-falling

It costs a lot more to fulfill their calling

You’ll be doin’ what’s right, when you give to them tonight

And they’ll have a good good good good christmas

(instrumental break)

You’ll be doin’ what’s right, when you give in the offering tonight

And they’ll have a good good good good christmas

Requested by the Evangel Temple Missions Committee for taking up a Christmas offering for missionaries
