Through the Eyes of a Child

Innocence and hope, pureness of joy Freshness in youth for each girl and boy Precious ability to always believe Through the eyes of a child...you'll see First fluffy snowflakes of the season Genuinely awaken the heart for no reason Until Frosty appears among cries of glee Through the eyes of a child...you'll see Angels, candy canes, and balls of all colors Shall deck the halls like no others When blending together on one amazing tree Through the eyes of a child...you'll see White-bearded, red-suited, chubby old man Thrilling children like no one else can Doubtful, yet wishful, upon his knee Through the eyes of a child...you'll see Cookies are baked, stockings are hung Decorations all around and shopping is done Countdown begins to Christmas Eve Through the eyes of a child...you'll see It's wonderful how holidays take us back where we belong Through treasured moments, the tune of a familiar song Gather loved ones close, then you'll see Through your eyes everything Christmas can be
