On Christmas Eve I heard a sound

I'd never heard before

A voice was softly speaking

And I wanted to hear more

So very quietly I arose

From the bed where I was laying

I tiptoed to the living room

Where I heard Santa praying

"Dear Jesus, It's your birthday

And I just want to say

Thanks for letting me be a part

Of your very special day

"I always have believed in you

I know that you are real

But there are some who don't believe

And how sad that makes me feel

"Some houses have no Bible

.They have no manger scene

Some people speak of Christmas

But forget what it really means

"I pray someday they all will know

What Your love's worth, and then

I know that they will understand

.The importance of your birth

!Amen

I always knew Santa brought toys

Like my truck and my sister's doll

But on this night I understood

.Why Santa is the jolliest of all

It is because he helps to spread

Good will and Christmas cheer And he helps Jesus celebrate

His birthday every year

Then I quietly returned to my room

.And snuggled back in my bed

Knowing I'd always remember

.The words that Santa had said

In the morning I remembered

.what I had heard and seen

But I wasn't sure if it was real

?Or just a wonderful dream
