    For people who have lost someone
    Hi,

    I didn't know if this is the right place to post this (and if it's not please move it) but I saw this recently and it made me smile, so I thought maybe it might work for someone else too.



    My first Christmas in Heaven


    I see the countless Christmas trees around the world below
    With tiny lights like heavens stars reflecting in the snow.
    The sight is so spectacular, please wipe away the tear
    For I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

    I hear the many Christmas songs that people hold so dear,
    But the sounds of music can’t compare with the Christmas choir up here,
    I have no words to tell you, the joy their voices bring,
    For it is beyond description to hear the angels sing.

    I know how much you miss me
    I see the pain inside your heart,
    But I am not so far away, we’re really not apart.
    So be happy for me dear ones, you know I hold you dear,
    And be glad I’m spending Christmas, with Jesus Christ this year.

    I sent you each a special gift from my heavenly home above.
    I sent you each a memory of my undying love.
    After all, love is a gift more precious than pure gold
    It was always most important in the story Jesus told.
    Please love and keep each other, as my Father used to do,
    For I can’t count the blessings, or love, he has for each of you.

    So have a Merry Christmas, and wipe away the tear.
    Remember I am spending Christmas, with Jesus Christ this year.


    *** For you.. xxx
