I never thought this would happen to me
I was too proud wouldn't let myself see
Now I admit that I should have known better
Now looking back I can read it like a letter
So I can tell you how
I almost slept through Christmas this year
There was a blizzard outside, I was inside where its warm
I had a heavy lunch, I had way too much eggnog
so I laid down on the couch, thought it wouldn't do no harm
I started to doze off but forgot to set my alarm
and thats how
I almost slept through Christmas this year

He Was A Boy

He was a boy just like me
He had a mom just like me
He learned to walk just like me
He learned to talk just like me
But He had a way with words
He had a way of speaking the truth
He had an air about Him
When He talked the mountains moved
He was a man just like me
He had a heart just like me
He had eyes just like me
He had hands and two feet
But He had a way of picking fights
He had a way of picking friends
He had a way of seeing
He could see into the hearts of men
He had sweat just like me
He had tears just like me
He had blood just like me
He had a spirit just like me
But He had a way of living
He was a stranger He was alone
He had a way of forgiving
He had a way of going home

Blessed be the Lord God of Israel,
for he has visited and redeemed his people
and has raised up a horn of salvation for us
in the house of his servant David,
as he spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets from of old,
that we should be saved from our enemies
and from the hand of all who hate us;
to show the mercy promised to our fathers
and to remember his holy covenant,
the oath that he swore to our father Abraham, to grant us
that we, being delivered from the hand of our enemies,
might serve him without fear,
in holiness and righteousness before him all our days.
And you, child, will be called the prophet of the Most High
(His name will be John)
for you will go before the Lord to prepare his ways
(His name will be John)
to give knowledge of salvation to his people
in the forgiveness of their sins,
because of the tender mercy of our God,
whereby the sunrise shall visit us from on high
to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death,
to guide our feet into the way of peace

So He Can Come

Who are you? What have you done?
Like an arrow shot at the sun
Who are you? What have you done?
You're the last one
We've all been waiting for you so he can come
You're the last one
