My face glowed bright as the time drew near
A warm feeling within me of wonderful cheer
Watching and waiting for the first signs of snow
My mind in a dance, happy thoughts all aglow
I remember thoughts of sadness also on those Christmases past
That the feeling of joy it just couldn’t last
I felt like something was missing and just not right
As I sat there and thought on Christmas night
Now those feelings have changed along with my heart
I am humbled and thankful with my brand new start
I am happy and joyful and now I can sing
I am a child again celebrating the birth of a King.
