Lyrics

Christmas Prayer by Stewart Warman

Not much has happened
since I last checked in
Like writing a postcard
I never know where to begin

Getting older
feeling more my age
No more wiser
I'm going through that stage

And at this time of year it's true
I often stop and think of you
And to anybody who might care
This is my Christmas prayer
You are my Christmas prayer

I guess I'm happy
well more or less
Doing you proud
just doing my best

I try so hard
but I often fail
Looking in the mirror
and I seem so frail

But hand on my heart
and with a sorrowful tear
I so do wish that you were here
To anyone with influence there
This is my Christmas prayer
You are my Christmas prayer

I don't tell anybody
This is just between us two
It really does help me
when I can talk to you

And sometimes
I feel you're here
Your love surrounds me,
it's so sincere

And to anyone with power to bear
This is my Christmas prayer
You are my Christmas prayer
You are my Christmas prayer
