Tobymac - This Christmas (Joy To The World) lyrics

Joy to the world Let Heaven and nature sing Let Heaven and nature sing Now Jonnie's never got his wish on December 25th That's what he said when he left the orphanage 9 years old, but Jonnie 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 standin' 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 Father of the fatherless Be with your sons and daughters this Christmas, this Christmas "Believe in angels?" Jonnie 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 giving's better than recievin' 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 close We looked to the heavens and it started to snow down blessings Father of the fatherless Be with your sons and daughters this Christmas, this Christmas Father let us not forget The children who are all alone this Christmas, this Christmas Religion that God our Father Accepts as pure and faultless is this To look after orphans and widows in their distress Merry Christmas everyone Joy to the world, the Lord is come Let Heaven and nature sing Let Heaven and nature sing Let Heaven and nature sing Let Heaven and nature sing "Believe in angels?" Jonnie asked me starin' at the sky I said, "I do", and saw a sparkle in his eye 9 years old, but Jonnie was an old soul Gonna spend is next Christmas in a real home Father of the fatherless Be with your sons and daughters this Christmas, this Christmas Father let us not forget The children who are all alone this Christmas, this Christmas Father of the fatherless Be with your sons and daughters this Christmas, this Christmas Father, let us not forget The children who are all alone this Christmas, this Christmas You ain't livin', you ain't livin' Father, this Christmas You ain't livin', you ain't livin' You ain't livin' till you choose to give Merry Christmas, everyone
