Gift Of Love

I don't want any presents
I don't need a Christmas tree
All I want for Christmas
is your arms holding me
I want to feel....you caress...
I want to give you my Christmas best
I want the gift of love
your warm embrace
I want to hold you close
gently kiss your face
I want to spend every
Christmas with you...
and love you through each
New Year too
I won't make any resolutions
I don't need a New Year's wish
All I want this new year
is to taste your sweet kiss...
I want to feel.....your warm lips
and ring in the New Year like this
I want the gift of love
your warm embrace
I want to hold you close
gently kiss your face
I want to spend every
Christmas with you...
and love you through each
New Year too
Some gifts might seem more precious
some gifts more practical
but the gift of our love
is the gift I want to know
and to grow
I want the gift of love
your warm embrace
I want to hold you close
gently kiss your face
I want to spend every
Christmas with you...
and love you through each
New Year too
I want to spend every Christmas and New Year too
Sharing the gift of love...
The gift of love with you

Christmas Tree Angel

There's the colored lights on branches
Sparkling tinsel hanging down
Vintage fragile ornaments
Wrapped gifts all around
Strings of dried cranberries
Gingerbread & candy canes
Handmade decorations
A red toy Santa train
The beautiful Christmas tree
Brings such happiness
It brings love and memories
Because of all this....
There's an angel in my living room
High atop the tree
There's an angel in my living room
White with silver wings
There's an angel in my living room
That I long to see
As this Christmas tree angel in my living room
Sends your love to me
There's the fresh scent of fir needles
And cookies that fill the air
Red bows & holly berries
Turtle doves in pairs
Soft white delicate snowflakes
Bold jolly bright cheer
And a hand stitched tree skirt
Things we've loved for years
The beautiful Christmas tree
Brings such happiness
It brings love and memories
Because of all this....
There's an angel in my living room
High atop the tree
There's an angel in my living room
White with silver wings
There's an angel in my living room
That I long to see
As this Christmas tree angel in my living room
Sends your love to me
As this Christmas tree angel in my living room
Sends your love to me

No Christmas Without You
03:24

no mistletoe is hanging
no carols are playing
no presents are laying
under the tree
no silver bells are ringing
no angels singing
no Santa is bringing
you back to me
there's no holly jolly
no glistening white
there's no jingle jangle
just a cold dark night
there's no celebrating
Christmas
without you
there's no holly jolly
No twinkling lights
there's no jingle jangle
just a silent night
there's no celebrating
Christmas
without you
no stockings are hanging
no reindeer are playing
no green boughs
are laying around to
see
no joyful noise is ringing
no choirs are singing
no bright star
is bringing you back to
me
there's no holly jolly
no glistening white
there's no jingle jangle
just a cold dark night
there's no celebrating
Christmas
without you
there's no holly jolly
No twinkling lights
there's no jingle jangle
just a silent night
there's no celebrating
Christmas
without you
as the frost on the window grows
this holiday goes way too slow
you won't be coming back I know
so I stare at....
last year's
Christmas card
there's no holly jolly
no glistening white
there's no jingle jangle
just a cold dark night
there's no celebrating
Christmas
without you
there's no holly jolly
No twinkling lights
there's no jingle jangle
just a silent night
there's no celebrating
Christmas
without you

as a little baby boy
was swaddled warm and tight
a bright star up high shined boldly
Through a clear night
A symbol of his love
and Angels sang...
with joy above...
they sang glory glory
praise to God's son
they sang glory glory
to the holy one
they sang glory glory
Alleluia.....
now we sing glory glory
too..
as a little baby boy
slept soundly in the hay
Shepherds came from far to him
bowed down in awe to pray
in the presence of his love...
and Angels sang...
with joy above...
they sang glory glory
praise to God's son
they sang glory glory
to the holy one
they sang glory glory
Alleluia.....
now we sing glory glory
too..
as a little baby boy
brought peace to all the earth
wise men delivered gifts of
frankincense gold and myrrh
to celebrate his love
and Angels sang...
with joy above...
they sang glory glory
praise to God's son
they sang glory glory
to the holy one
they sang glory glory
Alleluia.....
now we sing glory glory
too..
O
they sang glory glory
Alleluia.....
now we sing glory glory
too..

I love to see the colored lights
Twinkling in the winter night
So clear.....
So bright
I love to smell fresh gingerbread
Cinnamon and rich nutmeg
So pure....
So good
It's starting to feel like a holiday...

Coming into me
I feel the joy of the Christmas Spirit..
Growing inside me
I feel the love of the
Christmas Spirit...
Shining within me
And I love that Christmas Spirit....
Peace and joy to you and me
I love to hear the silver bells
Ringing with stories to share and tell
So clear...
So bright
I love to know the season's miracles
Bringing the world such hope and love
So pure...
So good
It's starting to feel like a holiday...
I feel the gift of the Christmas Spirit...
Coming into me
I feel the joy of the Christmas Spirit..
Growing inside me
I feel the love of the

Shining within me
And I love that Christmas Spirit....

fresh snow sparkles
across the land
a stage for angels
to dance
bright star twinkles
above the trees
a sign to give peace
a chance
the whole world sparkles
twinkles beckons
glistens with wonders of wintertime
the whole world sparkles
twinkles beckons
glistens with love's intense paradigms
night air beckons
in the cool breeze
with songs of winter romance
full moon glistens
high in the sky
a light shines on love's
expanse
the whole world sparkles
twinkles beckons
glistens with wonders of wintertime
the whole world sparkles
twinkles beckons
glistens with love's intense paradigms
come and dance
In the snow with me
take a chance
on love that might be
spark romance
with beauty we see
love's expanse of
eternity
the whole world sparkles
twinkles beckons
glistens with wonders of wintertime
the whole world sparkles

Blustery snow on a frosty day
Wanna snuggle up by the fireplace
Come and keep me toasty cause it's cold outside
Let's stay warm this chilly yuletide
Wrap me in your embrace
Watch how you light up my face
Give me your kisses
Joyfully I'll fulfill your wishes
And we'll have a very merry Christmas night
Bright decorations are on display
Jingly bells on Santa's sleigh
Carolers singing O Christmas tree
So glad you're here to celebrate with me
Wrap me in your embrace
Watch how you light up my face
Give me your kisses
Joyfully I'll fulfill your wishes
And we'll have a very merry Christmas night
Season's greetings
This fine evening
I think it's time for the gift giving
Wrap me in your embrace
Watch how you light up my face
Give me your kisses
Joyfully I'll fulfill your wishes
And we'll have a very merry Christmas night

walk with me
on Christmas Eve
hold my hand
under soft moon beams
hear fresh snow
crunch as we walk home
In crisp December air
where twinkling lights glow
Christmas Eve I long be
finding beauty quietly
sharing time generously
strolling happily
with you
happily
with you
stop to pray
at a manger scene
sing with me
join in caroling
pull me close
as the night grows cold
kiss my lips
under mistletoe
Christmas Eve I long be
worshipping openly
celebrating thankfully
loving joyously
with you
joyously
with you
walk with me
hear the sounds
share His love
all around
stop to pray
pull me close
spread His joy
for all to know
because it's Christmas...
Christmas time
Christmas Eve I long be
finding beauty quietly
sharing time generously
strolling happily
with you
happily
with you
Christmas Eve I long be
worshipping openly
celebrating thankfully
loving joyously
with you
joyously
with you
On Christmas Eve
