Do tears blur the colors of Christmas lights
and carols make you sigh?
Are you saddened because it's Christmas
and I am not nearby?
Do you think of all the joyous times
we shared in seasons past?
Does the overwhelming ache in your heart
seem like it will always last?
Please don't weep for me.
Know this Christmas is my best
At this Christmas dinner
I'm seated with the honored guest
If the tears you cry are because you are lonely without me today
To share this year's season
Then listen to what I say
God's gift that first Christmas
was much more than His son
He gave to us the promise
of eternal life for everyone
Now that I've gone on and received
that promised gift of life
I'm very much a part of
the Christmas spirit light
I'm the angel sitting on top of
a decorated tree
And a simple Christmas carol
sung by a child so reverently
I'm the Santa on the corner
standing and ringing his bell
I'm in that Christmas Eve story
that you know so well
I'm in every sight and sound
that brings people Christmas joy
I'm a smile on the face of a child
who received a much loved toy.
Now that I'm part of the season
we loved and shared so much
Close your eyes, think of me
Reach out and feel my touch.
Please share in all the joy I'm feeling
being a part of Christmas cheer
Look around and you'll find me.
Joyous Christmas, for I am near.
Written for all those who are missing someone special this Christmas. Know your loved one is very much a part of the Christmas spirit of life and everlasting love. For their sake, celebrate the season and share with them the joy
