Christmas at Granny's Table

The importance of family coming together at Christmas time.

Christmas at Granny’s Table

Stir in the sugar and applesauce,
Whip up the ginger and flour.
Sprinkle generously with pecans
Lovingly chopped by hand.
Granny’s Christmas kitchen at work.

Set the table with sparkling china
Given to Granny on her wedding day.
Place the embroidered napkins in place,
And Granny’s wedding silver on display.

Call together the family to take their place
At Granny’s table on Christmas day.
Twinkling eyes and laughing cherub cheeks
Gray-haired ladies and stout old gentlemen.

The family gathers at the table for Christmas.
Year by year and moment by moment
Precious memories to live eternal
The joy of Christmas at Granny’s table.
