When an Angel Cries

Oh meet me near the Christmas tree
I'll share some moments with you
Of days gone by and times to come
And hope for things we can do.

This tree so arrayed with glitter and bulbs
Stands tall with green arms so spry
And shines on through this season of cheer
Will show what makes angels cry.

Beneath all this glowing array
Are packages one, two and three
For each and every happy heart
Sheltered gracefully by this tree.

But no is not true for every tree
That perhaps will just stand alone
With a father who looks on with sad eyes
At no gifts for each and every one.

Tho' the greatest gift was given by God
And still beneath the tree lies
If not opened by those gathered there
That's when an angel cries.
