To My Mother

I see you each time you shed a tear,
I catch it and kiss you, I hope that you know that I'm near.
This place is so beautiful, there's so much to see!
I know that someday you'll be here with me.
The angels were singing when I arrived!
Jesus was there with His arms open wide!
The snow and the rain are just my confetti.
I know you'll be coming and I want to be ready.
When you feel the wind, it's me walking by.
I can run and skip now, I can even fly!
When the blossoms and leaves fall into your hair,
It's me planting kisses, yes, I put them there!
The birds are singing to keep you company,
They're especially for you with love from me.
I know that you miss me and feel so alone,
Until the great day when you finally come home
Please remember as the seasons change from one to another,
I'll always love you.  You're my friend and my mother.

Christmas With Jesus


I see the countless Christmas trees

Around the world below

With tiny lights, like Heaven's stars

reflecting on the snow.



The sight is so spectacular

Please wipe away a tear

For I 'm spending Christmas

With Jesus Christ this year.



I hear the many Christmas songs

That people hold so dear

But the sounds of music can't compare

With the Christmas choir up here.



For I have no words to tell you

The joy their voices bring

For it is beyond description

To hear an angel sing.



I know how much you miss me

For I feel your breaking heart...

But through our memories so dear

We're never far apart.



I can't tell you of the Splendor

Or the peace here in this place.

Can you just imagine Christmas

With our Savior face to face?



I'll ask him to light your spirit

As I tell him of your love.

So 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.
