It was Christmas Eve and I was all by myself.
I was
anything but a jolly old elf.
When suddenly there came a knock at the
door.
I don't know many people around here anymore.
I thought to myself,
"Now who could that be?
If I want to find out, I had better go see."
It turned out to be a lady who lived down the street.
In
her arms she held what for me was a treat,
Some cookies and fudge she had
made that day.
She said she had more to deliver and could not stay.
So
she gave me a big hug and a kiss on the cheek.
I was so surprised I was
unable to speak.
She wished me a Merry Christmas and went on her way.
I'm
sure God must have sent her to brighten my day.
