My Uncle Lloyd passed away. He was a great Preacher/Evanglist/Pastor. He led me to Jesus and I was called also into the ministry!
FIRST CHRISTMAS IN HEAVEN
I’ve had my first Christmas in
Heaven, A glorious, wonderful day!
I stood with saints of the ages
who found Christ the Truth and the Way.
I sang with the Heavenly choir:
Just think–I, who longed so to sing!
And, oh, what celestial music
we brought to our Saviour and King!
We sang the glad songs of
redemption, how Jesus to Bethlehem came,
And how they called His Name
Jesus, That all might be saved through His Name.
We sang once again with the
angels, the song that they sang that blest morn,
When shepherds first heard the
glad story that Jesus, the Saviour, was born.
O, how I wish you had been
there; No Christmas on earth could compare
With all the rapture and glory
we witnessed in Heaven so fair.
You know how I always loved
Christmas; it seemed such a wonderful day,
With all of my loved ones
around me, the children excited and gay.
Yes, now I can see why I loved
it, and oh, what a joy it will be
When you and my loved ones are
with me to share in the glories I see.
So, dear ones on earth, here’s
my greeting: Look up till the day dawn appears,
And oh, what a Christmas awaits
us, Beyond all our partings and tears!
