Toby Mac - This Christmas


Link: [On YouTube]

This Christmas (Joy To The World)
Toby Mac
Joy to the world
Let Heaven and nature sing
Let Heaven and nature sing

Now Johnny never got his wish on December 25th
That’s what he said when he left the orphange
Nine years old
But Johnny was an old soul
Gonna spend his first Christmas in a real home

Showed me a picture that he drew the night before
Was a picture of a man standin’ outside a door
I asked him who it was
And he said someone I only see in dreams
Comforts me when I cry myself to sleep

Father of the fatherless
Be with your sons and daughters
This Christmas
This Christmas

Believe in angels?
Johnny asked me starin’ at the sky
I said I do
And saw a sparkle in his eye
Big brother for the weekend respondin’ to the season
Took the chance that givin’s better than receivin’
Two nights
A new family
Some holiday cheer
We laughed and sang
Came on a midnight clear
We gave
Received
And as we headed to close
We looked to the heavens and it started to snow
Down blessings

Father of the fatherless
Be with your sons and daughters
This Christmas

You ain’t livin’ ‘til you choose to give
Love and joy and peace to one of His

Father let us not forget
The children who are all alone
This Chrismas

You ain’t livin’ ‘til you choose to give
You ain’t livin’ ‘til you choose to give

Religion
That God
Our Father
Accepts as pure
And faultless
Is this
To look after orphans
And widows
In their distress
Merry Christmas everyone

Joy to the world
The Lord is come
Let Heaven and nature sing
Let Heaven and nature sing
Let Heaven and nature sing
Let Heaven and nature sing

Believe in angels?
Johnny asked me starin’ at the sky
I said I do
And saw a sparkle in his eye
Nine years old
But Johnny was an old soul
Gonna spend his next Christmas in a real home

Father of the fatherless
Be with your sons and daughters
This Christmas

You ain’t livin’ ‘til you choose to give
Love and joy and peace to one of His

Father let us not forget
The children who are all alone
This Christmas

You ain’t livin’ ‘til you choose to give
You ain’t livin’ ‘til you choose to give

Father of the fatherless
Be with your sons and daughters
This Christmas

Let Heaven and nature sing
Let Heaven and nature sing

Father let us not forget
The children who are all alone
This Christmas

You ain’t livin’ ‘til you choose to give
You ain’t livin’ ‘til you choose to give

You ain’t livin’
You ain’t livin’

Oh Father
This Christmas

Let Heaven and nature sing
Let Heaven and nature sing

You ain’t livin’
You ain’t livin’

Don’t leave me all alone
This Christmas

Merry Christmas everyone
