Merry Christmas Eve
You’re a whisper of gentle, soft as light
Playing on the shadows,
Blessing the darkest night –
Remembering the beautiful on the winds
When my heart blamed you
For the melancholic it finds…
You’re a song of hope in my prayer
Breaking through the silence,
Melodies come to prepare –
My heart and soul, my spirit’s knowing
When I love, you are the vitality
Coloring my life in love’s flowing…
You’re the moment before the storm
When a quiet sigh bleeds calm,
Changing lives, here to transform –
Making my heart feel like it knows
All the joy, the love and peace
In each sun, as each star glows….
You’re the reason that I believe
In the wonder of One who came
On that first Christmas Eve –
To bless our souls with lasting grace
Assuring us of forever with God
Where we’ll live to see His face…
You’re the mother that I can say
Is more than just a mom –
Because you taught me to pray
I know what it means to truly love
I know what it is to live for God
Eager for my home, in heaven above!
You’re the mom who taught me that belief
Would silence all my fears
Restore my heart and bring relief –
So wherever I go, I can honestly say
There is hope, faith and love
That was sent so my heart will never stray…
Thank you, Mom… for showing me
Through your own living
That because of Him, I’m truly free –
And I’ll always be content,
Full of appreciation –
Because I know Him who was sent….
To bring hope to a world He created –
To bring faith to a heart who was insecure
To bring love to a soul who is elated –
To know this Jesus who came to save,
The One whose love is real,
The answer whose heart forgave!
Merry Christmas on this special day
Never forget to kneel and pray
Because this hope is the only way!
Thank you, Mom – I will always say…
You’re a light and come what may,
We’ll forever celebrate Jesus’ birthday!
