This Christmas Prayer Lyrics - Steve Wariner

Christmas what a wonderful time of year 

But it can also be a dark and lonely time 

And if you don't spend it with those you truly love 

Well it can feel just like any other day 

So this is a prayer for the lonely 

Especially those children all around the world 

Whose hearts have been torn apart this year 

[Chorus:] 

So pardon my tears things are different this year 

There's a cry I can't ignore 

I've thrown out my list and instead of a wish 

I'm praying this Christmas prayer 

That wherever you are may the bright morning star 

Lead you to someone who cares 

Well, Jimmy Stewart's on my screen again 

Man I miss those simple black and white days 

Then someone hits the remote and I see the sad dark eyes 

Of a young girl on the other side of the world 

And I think about the things she's had to see 

Things my children can't even imagine 

[Chorus]
