MY CHRISTMAS GIFTS FOR YOU.
If I had the wings of an angel
And could have my wishes come true,
These are the things I would wish ~
And these would be my gifts for you.
PEACE
Peace of heart and mind
In a world where love abounds.
I wish you gentle quiet days
Where kindness and friendship is found.
LOVE
Love of friends and family ~
A tender gentle touch,
A smile, a gentle caring word
Which says “I care so much.”
COMPASSION
I wish for you compassion
To hear another’s cry.
To reach out and help someone ~
Or at least the courage to try.
STRENGTH
I hope that you can find the strength
To carry on in days of pain,
I hope that strength is your umbrella
To shelter you from rain.
COURAGE
I wish you the courage to stand alone
For the things that stir your soul.
I wish you a sweet and blessed faith
Which allows you to be whole.
These the gifts I would choose for you
And I’d tie them with ribbons of love
I would wrap them in friendship’s special care
Sent from The Father above.
