From the country to the city
You will find great Christmas cheer

The sound, the smell, the visions seen
Binding hearts, spreading love to share

A tree of joy within the home
Watch as mistletoe may appear

Old Christmas carols bring such life
Their music seems new each year

Where some do dwell a hope is kept
For a love who will not be near

In a special place, by the tree
Stands the picture of one so dear

Adorned in uniform to serve
The pride of this home is clear

At tender moments from a heart
Come prayers for God to hear

Let us think of who is prayed for
And with love pray to God, sincere

Through our Savior born on Christmas
Comes the faith to deal with all fear

And the glory that is Heaven
We have faith to be one day there
