Another year gone,
my greatest fears realized-
I’m alone on Christmas Eve.
All these months depressed,
crying myself to sleep,
I forgot why I am here.
Unbroken and unscathed,
I have you to thank for that
but something is still missing.
Then I remember
the story I’ve heard
a million times before.
The reason we’re all here
on this chilly night-
to welcome your birth.
Jesus, my Savior
came to this world
that I would not be alone.
He gave his life
to save mine
so I may have hope.
