All the tinsel,
all the toys
are empty to compare
with the treasure of life that's born,
and the grief that we now bear.
How could it be that just this day
they hugged and kissed goodbye,
not knowing it would be the final time
to hold them oh so tight?
O Lord, please send your Spirit down
to comfort those who mourn,
the ones in shock and disbelief
from whom these precious lives were torn.
You who give your only Son
who wept, suffered and died.
You know the darkness and the pain
and collect each tear that's cried.
Baby Jesus, help us see
the precious gift you are;
the hope wrapped up you offer us
of life beyond the stars.
A life that's free from suffering.
The life You bought at Calvary.
That spans into eternity;
away from all this pain and misery.
Come, Savior, Come and make it real
to hearts in darkness and alone.
Show them your love and set them free
to hope in the eternal Home.
