good tunes, good times.

sometimes it feels like life is a roller coaster ride of good times, better times and yes, even crappy times. I feel very blessed that my ride has been mostly in the sun, and that I can easily remember the sunny times when I'm engulfed in the crappy times. This Christmas song is a new favorite, and I seem to be able to relate to it pretty well. it's like this, sometimes, no most times, things turn out differently than you planned. we don't always realize that they work out the way God knows is best for us until much later.

Merry Christmas, Here's to Many More...

I made it through the year
and I did not even collapse
Gotta say, thank God, for that
I'm torn between what keeps me whole
and what tears me in half
I'll fall apart or stay intact

With tired eyes I stumble back to bed
I need to realize my sorry life's
not hanging by a thread
At least not yet

So look at me now
Its finally Christmas and I'm home
Head indoors, to get out of this weather
And I don't know how
But the closest friends I've ever known
are all inside Singing together
Singing merry Christmas, here's to many more

It always hurt to be all by myself this time of year
A cold and lonely Christmas eve
And living out my days alone
Well that had been my deepest fear
But you promised you won't leave

I look towards the east and see a star
Jesus Christ, has blessed my life
to know just who you are
You are my hope

So look at me now
Its finally Christmas and I'm home
Head indoors, to get out of this weather
And I don't know how
But the closest friends I've ever known
are all inside singing together
Singing merry Christmas, here's to many more

Deck the halls with mistletoe
May all your heavy burdens go
Up the chimney in a cloud of smoke
The fire's burning bright
Strike up the band and play the tune
Cause Christmas will be here and soon
You'll hear our song in every room
This merry Christmas night

Singing merry Christmas, here's to many more

I love this song. I'm so glad my little sista Ashley introduced me to this band. While some of their regular songs are quite cheesy and a little bit too Christian Rock band for my liking, I have to say that I like them. I HIGHLY reccomend the purchase of the Relient K Christmas album, 'Let it Snow Baby, Let it Reindeer.' I've mentioned it before and I'll probably mention it again, so just save us all a little trouble and buy it :D

P.S. my Christmas card pictures are coming soon!
