Grown Up Christmas List by Amy Grant

Do you remember me?
I sat upon your knee;
I wrote to you
With childhood fantasies.
Well, I'm all grown-up now,
And still need help somehow.
I'm not a child,
But my heart still can dream.
So here's my life-long wish,
My grown-up Christmas list.
Not for myself,
But for a world in need.
No more lives torn apart,
That wars would never start,
And time would heal all hearts.
And everyone would have a friend,
And right would always win,
And love would never end.
This is my grown-up Christmas list.
As children we believed
The grandest sight to see
Was something lovely
Wrapped beneath our tree.
Well Heaven surely knows
That packages and bows
Can never heal
A hurting human soul.
No more lives torn apart,
That wars would never start,
And time would heal all hearts.
And everyone would have a friend,
And right would always win,
And love would never end.
This is my grown-up Christmas list.
What is this illusion called the innocence of youth?
Maybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth.
No more lives torn apart,
That wars would never start,
And time would heal all hearts.
And everyone would have a friend,
And right would always win,
And love would never end, oh.
This is my grown-up Christmas list.
This is my only life-long wish.
This is my grown-up Christmas list.


Scouters And Families,
Merry Merry and Happy Happy! May your holidays be WONDERFUL! And remember to believe .... believe in the magic of the season, in the good in humanity and in each other! Because
I believe in Santa and I believe that the true spirit of Christmas lies within us all! Love and giving to others not of material things but of ourselves (our time, talents, listening when they need an ear, being there when they need a shoulder, and helping them back on their feet when life knocks them down). May your hearts be merry and light this holiday season! May you find the true meaning of Christmas and share it with the world!
God bless us everyone! Love you ALL!
Mrs Tracye And Family!
