It's a contemporary Christmas song and points out, among other things, the problem of abortion, poverty, or broken homes - "ten million more who probably could". If these scourges of humanity were gone, we would have better days, how many children have been stopped from making the world better.

I know this song is about Jesus, the poor baby who saved the world. It's about all of us waiting to find Him, waiting for Him to break into our empty lives and give us what He promised in the Bible.
Life, abundantly (better days).

I believe this song is about someone who can only hope for "better days" meaning when it all comes down to it, items and objects will soon fade away but the emotional appeal inside will stay. If it all comes down to it, just give him days with happiness and forget the objects, money, and items for once.
