Please Come Home for Christmas

Colorful lights, tinsel and bows
Carols to sing in fireplace glow
Happy children struggling to sleep
Thinking of what Santa might bring them
That's what I love about Christmas

In spite of the joy this season can bring
Have we lost the true meaning of Christmas?
Malls fill with people searching for gifts
But I know what I hope for this Christmas
Jesus come home this Christmas

Please come home
You've been so long away
Bring back to men your peace on earth
On the day we celebrate Thy birth

Gather our children in Thy loving arms
Heal our broken hearts
Help us to love one another again
Our world has been so divided
Oh, Jesus come home this Christmas

Please come home
You've been so long away
Bring back to men your peace on earth
On the day we celebrate Thy birth

If by chance this is not the year
If there are still some things we must learn
Teach us to love as you always love
Help us bring the Christ back to Christmas
Fill us with Thy love this Christmas

If not this year or even the next
Please come back as soon as you can
Know in my heart there is only one gift
The gift I long for each year. Oh

Please come home
You've been so long away
Bring back to men your peace on earth
On the day we celebrate Thy birth

Please come home dear Savior
