The air is filled with love and peace
There is no darkness or sadness or grief
There is no need for worry – no police
The heart isn’t heavy – souls feel such relief
The light in the heavens shines like the sun
Pouring out joy that covers every thought
The celebration in heaven has only just begun
Hearts are excited, glowing brilliant as they ought
There is an elation in the spirit as it trembles
Remembering the birth that brought souls to life
To live here in this place that God Himself assembles
Created by the One who made us all, without strife
The feelings are such a blessing, always tender
Filling souls with kindness, warmth and serenity
Finding ways to say, “Merry Christmas” with splendor
Assuring lives they will always live in sweet amenity
The mind remembers all the Christmas’ spent on earth
Feels a twinge of affection for those who are missing
But, then – is reassured by the hand of God, which is worth
More than millions or zillions – more than reminiscing
There is a freedom in this place beyond heaven’s gates
Assurance that love will always win – conquering even death
In this heavenly home, there are those who God creates
For the purpose of giving love that dances through each breath
The reason that heaven knows each one is worth so much
Is that Jesus Himself came to us – during Christmas dreams
Showing hearts and souls that He is still the light who will touch
Lives with a love that glows and shows He goes to extremes…
Like dying on a cross and rising again – saving the world
From this place of darkness, this nightmare – torment
Redeeming hearts so they can dance – being freely whirled
Away from the dark, into the light, where they’re always content
Christmas in heaven is alive with things like joy, hope and peace
But there is no doubt, His suffering is being displayed in the soul
As reminders of all He has given, all that He has been – let Him increase
So that everywhere, everyone can feel the love that makes us whole
This Christmas in heaven – I hope that the angels can see
The way that Jesus is adored and loved by those He set free
