Oh, Lord, my God, what I desire
For Christmas, God, is nothing.
Nothing tangible. You know, like fire,
You can feel the heat but hold nothing.

Simple, Lord, and simply put,
What I really want, only You can give.
Could You reach in my heart and please uproot
All the evil that's left, so I can live?

I would also like peace and joy and love,
And the freedom and rest I need.
Only You, my God who is above
Can bring it with any speed.

So here, oh Lord is my true Christmas list
That only You could possibly grant.
And, oh, my God, one last little wish...
Make me willing to do Your command.
