I know the causes and the whys
My children, you are part of me
Sue Ann and Bill, my precious ones
I'd hear you whisper one to the other
As memories flood my mind with joy
I sit here and I think of you
I wish that you were here
For Christmas is the time of year
That families should be near
So it's alright with me
Just know my heart is there with you
And it will always be
Your hearts they beat with mine
As Christmas time is drawing near
My heart goes back in time
I remember when you were young
You'd jump out of bed on Christmas morn
And the toys you'd play among
About the things you got
I'd lay there listening with open ears
Your words weren't as quiet as you thought
I want you to know one thing
I wish happiness, peace and joy for you
That the Lord can only bring
