Marty Robbins - A Christmas Prayer Lyrics

SO LOVED AND MISSED. MERRY Christmas 🎄 🎁. R I P 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️🎄🎄🎄 GONE NEVER FORGOTTEN.

Dear Lord, I want to thank you
For what you've done for me
For all these many blessings
In a world that's caught in grief and misery
No matter where I wander
I'm always in your sight
And so, my friends, to you my love
Upon this Christmas night
If all my prayers aren't answered
Then, Lord, I'll understand
There's others more deserving
Others, Lord, who need a helping hand
I pray you'll guide and keep me
Ever near the light
And so my deepest thanks, my Lord
Upon this Christmas night

im triggered!!! this is racist, sexist, hate speech

Sometimes, with me, an unanswered prayer, is an answered prayer.😇

Perfect for 2018 - beyond christmas

Mmm I no I have been truly blessed throughout my whole life and with this song I no I've got a beautiful mother who love me mmmwha

this is a heart felt and emotional song  I love it MARTY you had a powerful voice love you and your songs

Eleven people are in need of a Christmas prayer.

How I miss the "old" World....

When my husband gave away our LPs, he included my beloved Marty Robbins Christmas album in the giveaway.  He go into big trouble for it.  But this is my favorite song from the album (and favorite Christmas tune).  I am so grateful to find it here.  Thank you!

My thanks to all of the Marty fans and preservers of his music.. We lost a lovely entertainer, when we lost him..

There aren't enough adjectives to describe his magnificent voice. We are so blessed  he shared it with us..

This is just a perfect prayer and beautifully done by one of my favourite singers.
