A Christmas Blessing
May love come alive within your heart.
As Christmas time draws near.
May hope fill each room you decorate.
And bring joy to those you hold dear.
May peace be before you at every meal.
And faith ring through every song.
For Christ is alive, the light of the world.
May he bless you all season long.
