Tobymac - This Christmas (Father of the Fatherless) lyrics

Woman: Joy to the world Let Heaven and nature sing Let Heaven and nature sing Toby: Now Johny never got his wish on December 25 That's what he said when we left the orphanage 9 years old, but Johny was an old soul Gonna spend his first Christmas in a real home Showed me a picture that he drew the night before Was a picture of a man standing outside a door I asked him who it was and he said someone I only See in dreams Comforts me when I cry myself to sleep Woman: Father of the fatherless Be with your sons and daughters this Christmas This Christmas Toby: Believe in angels? Johny asked me starin' at the sky I said I do and saw a sparkle in his eye Big brother for the weekend respondin' to the season Took the chance that givin's better than receivin' Two nights, a new family, some holiday cheer We laughed and sang Came on a midnight clear We gave, received, and as we headed to a close We looked to the Heavens and it started to snow down blessings Woman: Father of the fatherless Be with your sons and daughters this Christmas (Toby: You ain't livin' til you choose to give love and joy and peace to one of His) Father let us not forget The children who are all alone this Christmas (Toby:You ain't livin' til you choose to give, you ain't livin' til you choose to give)
