Mandisa & Matthew West - Christmas Makes Me Cry lyrics

rate me

I think of loved ones who’ve passed away<br />

And I pray they’re resting in a better place<br />

I think of memories of years gone by<br />

And sometimes Christmas makes me cry<br />

<br />

I think of soldiers across the sea<br />

Sometimes I wonder why it’s them instead of me<br />

But for my freedom they give their lives<br />

And sometimes Christmas makes me cry<br />

<br />

Tears of faithfulness, tears of hope<br />

I cry tears of joy at Christmas because I know<br />

There is peace on earth for every heart to find<br />

And sometimes Christmas makes me cry<br />

<br />

I think of family, I think of home<br />

And say a prayer for those who spend this time alone<br />

‘Cause love can reach out into a silent night<br />

And that’s why Christmas makes me cry<br />

<br />

Tears of faithfulness, tears of hope<br />

I cry tears of joy at Christmas because I know<br />

There is peace on earth for every heart to find<br />

And sometimes Christmas makes me cry<br />

<br />

I think of Mary and the virgin birth<br />

And I’m amazed by how much God thinks we are worth<br />

That He would send His only Son to die<br />

And sometimes Christmas makes me cry<br />

<br />

Tears of faithfulness and tears of hope<br />

I cry tears of joy at Christmas because I know<br />

There is peace on earth for every heart to find<br />

And sometimes Christmas makes me<br />

Oh, sometimes Christmas makes me<br />

Christmas makes me cry<br />

Christmas makes me cry
