Story Behind The Song
Recently my sister passed away and it was very hard. I kept thinking about my niece and nephew, they were both expecting babies, and my sister was so excited that she was finally going to be a grandma.
I thought about them and so many other people that will be missing someone special at Christmas.
So this is a song of hope that no matter what happens, they will always be a part of us.

Lyrics
Its Christmas time
There are presents by the tree
The kids are excited because Santas coming soon.
But Dad has something to share with the little ones.
Hey Kids, I have a letter from your mom,
It goes like this
I wont be home for Christmas
But know that my heart will be there,
I'm no longer feeling bad
So there's no need to be sad
Even though, it must be hard to bare.
No, I won't be home for Christmas
But know that I still care
Opening present by the tree
Won't you please still, think me
Mommys love, is still right there.
Keep the children close at Christmas
and hold them oh so tight
On every Christmas eve
Take this letter out to read
and tell them its going to be alright.
I wont be home for Christmas
So I hope these words bring you cheer
I'm not sure what you'll do
Just remember I love you
Merry Christmas, my dear
(Lead)
Keep the children lose at Christmas
and hold them oh so tight,
On every Christmas eve take this letter out read,
and tell them its going to be alright
I wont be home for Christmas
So I hope these words bring you cheer
I'm not sure what you'll do
Just remember I love you
Merry Christmas my dear.
I'm not sure what you'll do
Just remember I love you
Merry Christmas, my dear
