I sit here and I think of you
I wish that you were here
For Christmas is the time of year
That families should be near

I know the causes and the whys
So it’s alright with me
Just know my heart is there with you
And it will always be

My children, you are part of me
Your hearts they beat with mine
As Christmas time is drawing near
My heart goes back in time

Sue Ann and Bill, my precious ones
I remember when you were young
You’d jump out of bed on Christmas morn
And the toys you’d play among

I’d hear you whisper one to the other
About the things you got
I’d lay there listening with open ears
Your words weren’t as quiet as you thought

As memories flood my mind with joy
I want you to know one thing
I wish happiness, peace and joy for you
That the Lord can only bring
