"I'm Spending Christmas With Jesus This Year"
I see the countless Christmas trees
Around the world below
With tiny lights like Heaven stars
Reflecting on the snow,
The sight is so spectacular
Please wipe away that tear
For I'm spending Christmas
With Jesus this year
I hear the many Christmas songs
That people hold so dear
O', the sounds of music can't compare
With the Christmas choir up here.
For I have no words to tell you
Of the joy their voices bring
For it's beyond description
To hear the angels sing.
I know how much you miss me,
I see the pain inside your heart.
But, through our memories so dear...
We're never far apart.
I can't tell you of the splendor
Or the peace here in this place
Can you just imagine Christmas
With Our Savior...face-to-face.
I'll ask him to light your spirit
As I tell him of your Love.
Then I'll pray for "One another"
As you lift your eyes above.
So please let your heart be joyful
And let your spirit sing
For I'm spending Christmas in Heaven
And I'm walking with the king.
In Loving Memory of
Frank Jr.
"My Son Lives In Paradise"
The dust has settled on the things
That I have stored away
A favorite toy, for little boy
A jar of dried out clay.
A photograph when you were young
Sits quietly on the shelf
Thoughts of you come drifting back
I just can't help myself.
A drawing that you made for me
When you were very small
Is framed within this heart of mine
And hangs upon the wall.
A scrapbook lies within the room
Where you once laid your head
Your favorite book, a model car
The pillow on your bed.
I miss you coming in from school
"Hey mom, it's me, I'm home"
I miss the little words and hugs
The special times we've known.
A part of me just disappeared
The day you went away
An empty space now fills my heart
There are no words to say.
A closet filled with memories
Of happy days gone by
A baseball cap and souvenir
Why did you have to die?
The trophies that you won at school
Stand proudly on display
Your many friends can't understand
Why God called you away.
I hear your voice within the halls
It echoes in the night
I see you in the evening mist
And in the morning light.
So many things you left behind
Are now a memory
But little arms that held me tight
Will always stay with me.
An empty space now fills my heart
My boy, my child, my son
You've gone into another world
Where golden dreams are spun.
I do not know the answers
It's not for me to know
But I will know the truth one day
Just why you had to go.
My turn will come to leave this world
I'll gaze into your eyes
God's perfect plan will be revealed
Up there in paradise.
