Christmas Prayers - Neil Diamond

You’re in my Christmas prayers

And in my Christmas dreams

In every Christmas story told

In every song I sing

In every song I sing

When I hear people laugh and I see children play

Reminds me of that photograph

Of us on Christmas day

It’s us on Christmas day

I see you standing there smiling down on me

As I untie the gifts that lie

Beneath our Christmas tree

And every Christmas day

I know I’ll find you there

You’ll always be the answer to

My every Christmas prayer

My every Christmas prayer

Grandmas, grandpas, fathers, mothers

Friends I’ve loved dear

Sisters, brothers, sons and daughters I once played with

Aunts and uncles I once stayed with

Their story will be told as long as love recalls

Those loved ones smiling down on me

The greatest gift of all

The greatest gift of all

The loved ones far and near

Will be forever there

It’s Christmas up in Heaven too

With love beyond compare

With love beyond compare

Don’t have to read the book of life

Behind the veil of tears

You’ll always be right here with me

And in my Christmas prayers

You’re in my Christmas prayers
