Story Behind The Song
I originally wrote the melody for this tune in 2012 at the start of a recording session for another song. As I sat down at the piano for the recording, I felt that "there was a melody to be played", shall we say? This song is what happened but I had no words for the tune except "At Christmas time".
Throughout the years until this past month I occasionally felt the urge to finish the song, but I always disregarded the promptings until the holiday season had passed.
This year, the promptings were stronger and I relented and recorded the tune. The lyrics were written quickly and so I can now upload this song in time for Christmas. I am extremely pleased with it and I do hope you will be too!
God Bless!!!

Lyrics
In these trying times, as we feel the cost
And our tired hearts cry out once more
From within our depths comes an aching grief
And it starts to wake us from our sleep
As the voice that calls from deep within
and whispers, "My Dear, we must begin"
"Begin anew our search for love and truth"
At Christmas Time
It's a simple truth, it's a simple law
That loving one another is certainly best of all
Yes, it's time, it's time to seek The Friend
Cause this chance may never come again
The Light of Life is calling now
The Love we cannot live without
May we awaken to this Love
That's my prayer at Christmas time
May we all awaken to this Love
That's my prayer
That's my prayer at Christmas time
