"MY FIRST CHRISTMAS IN HEAVEN"

I see 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 the tear,
for I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

I hear the many Christmas songs, that people hold so dear,
but the sounds of music can't compare, with the Christmas choir up here.
I have no words to tell you, the joy their voices bring,
for it is far beyond description, to hear the angels sing.
I know how much you miss me, I see the pain inside your heart,
but I am not so far away, we really aren't apart.
So be happy for me, loved ones, you know I hold you dear,
and be glad I'm spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

I sent you each a special gift, from my heavenly home above.
I sent you each a memory of my undying love.
After all, "LOVE" is the gift more precious than pure gold.
It was always most important in the stories Jesus told.
Please love and keep each other, as my Father said to do.
For I can't count the blessings or the love He has for you.
So have a Merry Christmas and wipe away that tear,
remember, I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.
