Just some thoughts...

Beat the Drum
 
 
Beat the drum slowly
Cadence of a funeral dirge
For those who are not with us
This Christmas morn
 
Beat the drum slowly
Cadence of a heart burdened with cares
For those who are doing without
This Christmas morn
 
Beat the drum slowly
Cadence of the Chrilst child born
For all of us he died for
To be saved this Christmas morn
 
Beat the drum smartly
Cadence of those who have shared
For those who are with us
This Christmas morn

Yes, like this one, Liz. The drumbeat is like a heartbeat that shares our joys and griefs. It's good to remember... to be thankful and to care. I hope your Christmas is a happy one with friends and family around you to enjoy. xx
