“The Last Christmas”
I feel your heart beating
Inside my own skin
And I think of Mary
In Bethlehem
That night in a stable
Our saviour was born
Yes, we have so much
To be thankful for
On the last Christmas
The last Christmas
The last Christmas
Without you
They’re choosing the colours
Preparing your room
For one day; Mid[spring]
The advent of you
Together we wait for
A heavenly gift
Is winter a wonder?
Enchanted that this is
The last Christmas
The last Christmas
The last Christmas
Without you
See the stars shining for above
Hear the singing
Praise to the Giver of Life and Love
Maker of Beautiful things
I feel your heart beating
Inside my own skin
And I think of Mary
In Bethlehem
When darkness was shattered
The dawn of God’s grace
And the journey’d begun
To the first Easter day
On this last Christmas
The last Christmas
The last Christmas
The very last Christmas
The last Christmas
The last Christmas
The last Christmas
Without you
(Sixpence None the Richer)
PS. Tomorrow we get a very special Christmas gift — we will find out if we’re welcoming a baby girl or a baby boy into our arms in April.
One of my absolute favorites. I can’t get through the last verse without tears 🙂 Merry Christmas to you and your family!
