This Christmas

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
