Last Christmas

As I watch him string the lights

And decorate the tree

I can’t help but think

Is this my last Christmas?

 

We gather around the table

Hold hands in prayer

We say for what we’re grateful

And I say to be alive

 

On Christmas Eve we go to church

To learn the story of His birth

I can’t help but wonder

Will I be meeting Him soon?

 

If this is my last Christmas

Then make me a promise

Next year you’ll still celebrate

Next year you’ll still decorate

 

Top the tree with an angel

Let her be a reminder

That I’m up in heaven now

Watching over you
