This Hallmark Moment

cold december 25

i think of everything that means so much to me

and the gift you gave

2,000 years and still so many choose not to believe

we see it for ourselves

but never understand the meaning

years of promises

never spoke again until succumbed to visions so deceiving

cold december 31

another year has passed resolve to seek your face

pray you'll hold me close

carried through these days enveloped in your grace

we've lost it all along the way

and now there's nothing left to say

it's gone it's gone away

you're gone you're gone away

we search for ways that we make it better

but on our own we're going to search forever
