Christmas Grief

Christmas Grief







I know the lights upon your tree
Won`t seem so bright this year.
And carols that the children sing
You may not want to hear.

The Holidays bring back the pangs
Of grief within your heart.
And once again, you`ll question why
Your loved one had to part.

The Lord provides us loved ones but,
Recalls them all to soon.
Then Christmas seems to reinforce
Your world is out of tune.

Hold tight to friends and family,
They`ll shelter you with love.
Through them you`ll sense your loved one`s heart 
From heaven up above.
