My Christmas Prayer Lyrics

by Don Moen

The lights of the city shine bright, red and green
And sometimes the season is not what it seems
In hartical joy let me rest in your care,
Believe me, Lord Jesus, this is my Christmas prayer.

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e104018-don_moen~my_christmas_prayer_lyrics.html ]
The wise men brought treasures,
The sheppards bowed down,
Angels were singing their glorious sound.

I have no great bridges, no gift to heart,
What can I give You? Lord, I can give my heart.

Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask You to stay,
Close by me forever, I pray.
Through the storm, through the night,
Hold me close, be my light, show the way.

Bless all of Your children, we need Your embrace
We hunger for mercy and long for your grace.
Our grateful devotion is all we can bring,
We praise You, we bless You,
Jesus, our savior King.

Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask You to stay,
Close by me forever, I pray.
Through the storm, through the night,
Hold me close, be my light.

Through the storm, through the night,
Hold me close, be my light, show the way.

How great is the gift just to know You are there
Be near me, Lord Jesus, be near me, Lord Jesus,
This is my Christmas prayer.
