Grown Up In the Holiday Season

I remember as a child
There was something wild
About Christmas

Decorating the tree
Feeling so happy
On that day

With toys and treats
The way I would eat
On the 25th 

Watching the lights 
Turn on each night
For this season

But I grew older
He was the shoulder
I could cry

He had power to heal
The way it would steal
My heart

So now I sit and pray
About this day
I love you Jesus

Merry Christmas
