I was attending a Christmas Paegent at a local Church last night in Greensboro, NC. A song was performed that I have to admit that I was not familiar with. I am not sure who the author is either at this time. This song really says it all about my feelings this time of the year and especially this year, as our troops are still fighting for our freedom in a far away land. I have to admit that this is my new favorite song for this time of the year. This song will bring about the tears and emotions. The song is called; Christmas makes me Cry.I have posted the lyrics below, just read the words, it is almost in a poem fashion.To the author of this song, thank you my friend.I think of loved ones whove passed awayAnd I pray their resting in a better placeI think of memories of years gone byAnd sometimes Christmas makes me cryI think of soldiers across the seaAnd Sometimes I wonder why its them instead of meFor my freedom they give their livesAnd sometimes Christmas makes me cryTears of thankfulness, tears of hopeI cry tears of joy at Christmas cause I knowThere is peace on earth for every heart to findAnd sometimes Christmas makes me cryI think of families, I think of homeAnd say a prayer for those who spend this time aloneCause love can reach out into a silent nightAnd thats why Christmas makes me cryTears of thankfulness, tears of hopeI cry tears of joy at Christmas cause I knowThere is peace on earth for every heart to findAnd sometimes Christmas makes me cryI think of Mary and the virgin birthAnd Im amazed at how much God thinks were worthThat He would send His only Son to dieAnd sometimes Christmas makes me cryTears of thankfulness, tears of hopeI cry tears of joy at Christmas cause I knowThere is peace on earth for every heart to findAnd sometimes Christmas makes me cry

Wo! Great song. You're right Pastor Ken...that pretty much says it all.
