Lyrics

[instrumental intro]

[verse 1]
mates for life until this year
lost the one you hold so dear
the holiday season can feel a void
easy to miss the one you enjoyed

[verse 2]
hang two stockings in memory
feed your traditional treasury
soon your family and friends will gather
hear the Christmas carols and laughter

[bridge]
a table for two is now just one
your healing heart is sure to come
surround yourself with those you love
keep the faith with your God above
[instrumental interlude]

[verse 3]
there’s always something to be thankful for
when missing the one that you adore
list your blessings and write them down
Gods love and grace is most profound

[verse 4]
this New Year’s Day you start a new
what is there different that you will do
adjust your sail and set a new course
keep Jesus as your guiding force
[instrumental finale]
