Old Saint Nick

In her dreams she is visited by old Saint Nick He is here to tell her the miraculous story of Christ The Star of David was the angel upon the tree of life Her papa was a little out of sort as he strung the Christmas lights Her mama was slightly tore up as she hung the cardboard reindeer just right Grandma was real sick and it was starting to show Their old "hand-me-down" house was drafty and cold In her dreams she is visited by old Saint Nick He is here to tell her the miraculous story of Christ The Star of David was the angel upon the tree of life For years they had all avoided this place Yet a tear stung her eye as forgiving smiles spread across their eager faces Christ was born upon this day for a reason Come as you are being the ultimate season In her dreams she is visited by old Saint Nick He is here to tell her the miraculous story of Christ The Star of David was the angel upon the tree of life She cares not for eggnog and mistle toe All she asks is that the love may show For Christ lives on in our open hearts Let this day mend where we have drifted apart In her dreams she is visited by old Saint Nick He is here to tell her the miraculous story of Christ The Star of David was the angel upon the tree of life She awakes from her dream and runs to sit beside the tree Her eyes gleam and this is all she can see Old Saint Nick has spread the story of Christ She smiles as as Christmas light shines on the tree of life
