Spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year

I see the countless Christmas trees around the world below

with tiny lights like heaven’s stars reflecting on the snow.

The sight is so spectacular please wipe away that tear

for I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

I hear the many Christmas songs that people hold so dear

but the sound of music can’t compare with the Christmas choir up here.

I have no words to tell you of the joy their voices bring

for it is beyond description to hear the angels sing.

I know how much you miss me; I see the pain inside your heart

for I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

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 lift your spirit as I tell Him of your love

so then pray for one another as you lift your eyes above.

Please let your hearts be joyful and let your spirit sing

for I am spending Christmas in heaven and I’m walking with the King.
