Rejoice

Merry Christmas
Everyone,
Rejoice at the season.
Riches of the heart abound.
You well know the reason.

Christmas Day,
Here at last,
Rejoice, rejoice, rejoice.
It's our favourite holiday,
Sing out and give it voice.
This is the day of love for all.
May everyone feel at peace
And pray that soldiers all come home
So all the wars shall cease.

I think it true that more people have Christmas as their holiday, and so more than any other holiday in the world. My favorite childhood memories with my mother are associated with it. Have a happy new year, Francine, and may you always be writing great songs.

If our soldiers could all return to their families, just think how joyful this holiday would be, Francine! I share your prayers that wars will end for love thrives during times of peace. Merry Christmas, Carolyn
