God bless ye precious families
Let nothing you dismay
Remember that our special kids
Might scream on Christmas day
To save you from those children’s tears
Keep receipts for all those toys
O I’m longing for comfort and joy, comfort and joy
I’m longing for comfort and joy.
In lots of towns and lots of rooms
They’ll be strange dinners made
Cos lots of children can not eat
The turkey that’s been laid
So just make chips and nuggets now
To keep your happy boy
Or you’ll never see that comfort and joy, comfort and joy
You’ll never see that comfort and joy.
From God our heavenly Father
Our blessed children came
But he now needs to give us patience
So we can all stay sane
The lights he broke, the baubles smashed
The tree he did destroy
And now I’ve lost my comfort and joy, comfort and joy
Now I’ve lost my comfort and joy.
Fear not said all the family
It’s just the time of year
It’s just because you spoil him
That iPad was too dear
But they don’t hear his high demand
It’s all that he’ll enjoy
But we still sing of comfort and joy, comfort and joy
We still sing of comfort and joy.
The schools are closed for Christmas break
The teachers need a rest
So we’re left caring day and night
But still I say we’re blessed
Lot’s more hugs and kisses too
Times with my girl and boy
And that will bring me comfort and joy, comfort and joy
And that will bring me comfort and joy.
And when it comes to holidays
I need you all to see
Our special kids might be the ones
Who are up in A and E
I’m grateful for the NHS
And all who they employ
To help us spread the comfort and joy, comfort and joy
To help us spread the comfort and joy.
Now to the Lord sing praises
Our children are still here
And with true love and brotherhood
We face another year
So from us all at Christmas time
I hope you all enjoy
Good tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy
Good tidings of comfort and joy.
Fantastic
