What I Want For Christmas

Santa, What I want for Christmas
   Your elves can't make
   You can't put in your bag
   and doesn't cost a cent

Santa, What I want this Christmas
   is a gift from the heart
   emanating from your soul
   to change you, and us, forever

Santa, I want you to go to Church
   this Christmas Eve, and pray --
   Pray for the Widow 
   for the Orphan 
   for the Stranger
   Pray for the Homeless
   for the Poor
   for the Forgotten
       Pray hard

     Thanks, Santa
