Hold on Baby E, we are coming. . . Have you ever been driving along in your own little word thinking about you own little things and then BAM... a song comes on the radio and it's like your complete thoughts were turned into a song?? Well, that happened to me today as I was coming back from a little Christmas shopping wondering if we'd have Baby E home by next Christmas. I almost ran off the road! Oh my word, if you haven't heard this song this holiday season yet, get your tissues out! And, did I mention, Third Day is one of my favorites to begin with! (It definitely has more meaning when you actually HEAR the song).
Third Day - Merry Christmas Lyrics:
"There's a little girl trembling on a cold December morn
Crying for momma's arms
At an orphanage just outside a little China town
There the forgotten are
But half a world away I hang the stockings by the fire
And dream about the day when I can finally call you mine
It's Christmas time again but you're not home
Your family is here and yet you're somewhere else alone
And so tonight I pray that God will come and hold you in his arms
And tell you from my heart I wish you Merry Christmas
As I hang the tinsel on the tree and watch the twinkling lights
I'm warmed by the fire's glow
Outside the children tumble in a wonderland of white,
Make angels in the snow
But half a world away you try your best to fight the tears
And hope that heaven's angels come to carry you here
It's Christmas time again but you're not home
Your family is here and yet you're somewhere else alone
And so tonight I pray that God will come and hold you in his arms
And tell you from my heart I wish you Merry Christmas
Christmas is a time to celebrate the holy child
And we celebrate his perfect gift of love
He came to earth to give his life
And prepare a place for us
So we could have a home with him above
It's Christmas time again and now you're home
Your family is here so you will never be alone
So tonight before you go to sleep, I'll hold you in my arms
And I'll tell you from my heart, and I'll you from my heart
I wish you Merry Christmas"
