Never should your heart feel lonely
though I may seem far away.
From a place up in the heavens
I’ll be watching you everyday.

The Magic of Christmas

'Joy to the World, ' the carolers sang out
as last minute shoppers scurried about,
...

...

Trees start out bending with the wind.
As their roots deepen
they grow strong.
They weather the seasons,

Carry On

At times when you feel troubled -
when your happiness is gone -
...

Each scar I wear, each wound that heals,
each time I weep, each hurt I feel,
cannot deter the gift I share
to bring you hope, to show I care.

A Christmas Lesson

A cold winter's night in a small little town,
on a busy street corner, people bustling around,

before there was Santa and reindeer and snow,
a star shone down on humble beginnings below

in a manager so humble, a child born so poor,
with only the animals asleep on the floor.
...

God looked down one cold winter night
to see the world fighting. What a terrible sight.
He remembered a time when He sent them a gift
That made them all happy and each heart would lift.
