When the snow falls silent on Christmas day
And the flakes float ‘round us like summer hay
We will sing of Jesus who came this day
A gift from Heaven above
Oh Lord I thank you
I really thank you
I just thank you all the days of my life
When we feel unworthy and lead astray
Ashamed of the thoughts in our head today
We will think of the grace that continues to save
Sent from a God of love
Oh Lord I thank you
I really thank you
I just thank you all the days of my life
When we feel bitter and in dismay
With the worlds dishonest unbalanced scales
We remember righteousness will come our way
Thanks to a God who’s just
Oh Lord I thank you
I really thank you
I just thank you all the days of my life
As the bombs drop over the globe today
We cry for the people hurt in every way
Then we will dream of the peace we’ll have one day
When we get to Heaven above
Oh Lord I thank you
I really thank you
I just thank you all the days of my life

(the chorus is from a song we sing at church, but it goes perfectly with this song)
This is the place for me to post all of my thoughts I've written down over the years. On these pages you'll find stories, poems, and songs about love, spirituality, nonsensical meanderings, and thoughtful ponderings. These are my past and present innermost thoughts, so be prepared to enter the mind-field of Royce Waxenfelter.
