CHRISTMAS TRIBUTE

IN MEMORIAM

In loving memory of my beloved husband, Bernie McGaughey.

I’m Spending Christmas with Jesus Christ This Year.

I see the countless Christmas trees

Around the world below

with tiny lights, like Heaven’s stars

Reflecting on the snow.

The sight is so spectacular,

Please wipe away that tear.

For I’m spending Christmas

With Jesus Christ this year.

I hear the many Christmas songs

That people hold so dear.

But the sounds of music can’t compare

With the Christmas choir up here.

For I have no words to tell you

The joy their voices bring.

For it is beyond description

to hear as angels sing.

I know how much you miss me,

I see the pain inside your heart.

For I’m spending Christmas

with Jesus Christ this year.

I can’t tell you of the splendor

Or the peace here in this place.

Can you just imagine Christmas

With our Savior, face to face?

I’ll ask Him to light your spirit

As I tell Him of your love

So then pray one for another

As you lift your eyes above.

So please let your hearts be joyful

And let your spirits sing,

For I’m spending Christmas in Heaven

And I’m walking with the King!

We love you, Dad.

Bonnie, Kelly, Tammy, Scott and Beth,

Grandchildren and Great-grandchildren
