I saw this somewhere. I do not know the author. It is fitting for this time of year for all those who are missing someone dear to them.

I'm Spending Christmas With Jesus This Year



I see the countless trees around the world below


With tiny lights like Heaven's stars reflecting on the snow


The sight is so spectacular, please wipe away that tear,


For I'm spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.




I hear the many Christmas songs that people hold so dear


But they can't compare with the Christmas choir up here


I have no words to tell you, the joy their voices bring


For it's beyond description to hear the angels sing


I know how much you miss me,


I see the pain inside your heart


But I'm not so far away, we really aren't apart.




Please love and keep each other, as my Father said to do


For I can't count the blessings of love He has for you


I can't tell you of the splendor, nor the peace in this place


Can you imagine Christmas with our Savior face to face?




I'll ask Him to light your spirit as I tell him of your love


Then pray for one another as you lift your eyes above.


So, please let your hearts be joyful, and let your spirit sing


For I'm spending Christmas in Heaven,


and I'm walking with the King!
