This Christmas Prayer

Christmas… what a wonderful time of year

But it can also be a dark and lonely time

And if you don't spend it with those you truly love

Well it can feel just like any other day

So this is a prayer for the lonely

Especially those children all around the world

Whose hearts have been torn apart this year

Chorus:

So pardon my tears things are different this year

There's a cry I can't ignore

I've thrown out my list and instead of a wish

I'm praying this Christmas prayer

That wherever you are may the bright morning star

Lead you to someone who cares

Well, Jimmy Stewart's on my screen again

Man I miss those simple black and white days

Then someone hits the remote and I see the sad dark eyes

Of a young girl on the other side of the world

And I think about the things she's had to see

Things my children can't even imagine

Chorus:

So pardon my tears things are different this year

There's a cry I can't ignore

I've thrown out my list and instead of a wish

I'm praying this Christmas prayer

That whoever you are know that God's shining star

Leads you to someone who cares

Tag:

So whoever you are know that God's shining star

Always leads you to someone who cares
