This Christmas Lyrics
Joy to the world Let Heaven and nature sing Let Heaven and nature sing
Now Jonnie never got his wish on December 25 That's what he said when we left the orphanage 9 years old, but Jonnie was an old soul Gonna spend his first Christmas in a real home
Showed me a picture that he drew the night before Was a picture of a man standing outside a door I asked him who it was and he said someone I only See in dreams Comforts me when I cry myself to sleep
Father of the fatherless Be with your sons and daughters this Christmas This Christmas
Believe in angels? Jonnie asked me, starin' at the sky I said I do and saw a sparkle in his eye Big brother for the weekend respondin' to the season Took the chance that givin's better than receivin' Two nights, a new family, some holiday cheer We laughed and sang Came on a midnight clear We gave, received, and was we headed to a close We looked to the heavens and it started to snow Down blessings
Father of the fatherless Be with your sons and daughters this Christmas [You ain't livin' till you choose to give love & joy & peace To one of His] Father let us not forgetthe children who are all alone this Christmas [You ain't livin' till you choose to give, you ain't livin' till you Choose to give]
[James 1:27] Religion that God our Father Accepts as pure and faultless is this To look after orphans and widows in their distress Merry Christmas everyone
Joy to the world The Lord is come Let Heaven and nature sing Let Heaven and nature sing Let Heaven and nature sing Let Heaven and nature sing
Believe in angels? Jonnie asked me, starin' at the sky I said I do and saw a sparkle in his eye 9 years old, but Jonnie was an old soul Gonna spend his next Christmas in a real home
