Verse 1

Dear God it’s been awhile
I’m not sure what to say
But the lights are on the tree
And the family’s on their way
And I just thought I would pray

Verse 2

It’s been a hard year
I’ve barely made it through
I thought Christmas time would help
But I’m tired and overwhelmed
And I don’t know what to do

Pre Chorus

I’m never one
To make a Christmas list
But I’m needing’ something
Only You can give

Chorus

Can’t hold it in my hands
Can’t wrap it up with all
The ribbons and bows
Ribbons and bows
I need to feel it down
Deep in my soul
All I want for Christmas this year
Is a little hope

Verse 3

Seems like a small thing
Considering all You’ve done
Let me hear a choir sing
Or let a stranger on the street
Remind me I am loved
Remind me I am loved

Chorus

Can’t hold it in my hands
Can’t wrap it up with all
The ribbons and bows
Ribbons and bows
I need to feel it down
Deep in my soul
All I want for Christmas this year
Is a little hope

Bridge

Oh
God I need a little
Hope
Let me feel it in my soul
Let this sorrow break
Let my heart be filled
On Christmas day

Chorus

Can’t hold it in my hands
Can’t wrap it up with all
The ribbons and bows
Ribbons and bows
I need to feel it down
Deep in my soul
All I want for Christmas this year

Tag

All I want for Christmas this year
Is a little hope

Post Chorus

Can’t hold it in my hands
Can’t wrap it up with all
The ribbons and bows
Ribbons and bows
Can’t hold it in my hands
Can’t wrap it up with all
The ribbons and bows
Just a little hope
