I
believe in Christmas
In sleigh bells in the sky
Reindeers with bright noses
Santa dropping by
There he is I see him
Just like every year
Bringing us his goodness
With heart so very dear
Such beauty I do treasure
Not only for the gifts
For spirit of his laughter
The love that he befits
Each year I stand here waiting
Knowing I will see
The sleigh of love arriving
This joyous day for me
Over hills and mountains
Braving any storm
Heart to share with others
Cuddly soft and warm
Yes I will remember
The reason for his day
The joy of sharing Christmas
God's child was born today
Joy cannot be measured
In sight for all to see
Love to always treasure
With Christmas memories.

Thoughts On Christmas
All the children's eyes are smiling,
Christmas Eve is finally here!
Outside my window snow is falling,
This brightest evening of the year.
The children dream of Christmas morning;
Santa Claus is on the way!
And I, a father, watch it snowing,
And drift back to another day
When I, a child, watched in wonder
As magic filled the world with joy.
I see myself, in ghostly shadows,
Long ago a little boy.
The house is quiet, dark, and still,
And I can't sleep although I'm trying.
The children's dreams are filled with visions
Of Santa Claus and reindeer flying.
In the silence of this evening
I watch the winter snowflakes fall;
For time is such a precious gift...
And love the greatest gift of all.
