Once again we welcome here
With arms held open wide,
A very special time of year;
Choose presents, wrap and hide

A Christmas gift is waiting,
We're hoping it's 'the one'
There'll be no more hesitating,
Unwrapping's so much fun

Truth be told it's more than that
Yes, presents pass the time;
At dinner we each wear a hat
Eat turkey, drink the wine

But Christmas is a chance to show
Our loved ones that we care,
A time to reaffirm, although
We hope they know we're there;

If ever they should need you
Your arms are open wide,
At any time, the whole year through
You'll be right by their side...

This Christmas, when you sit there
With gifts and cards aside,
Remember there are those who care;
You're treasured in my life
