Hello forum friends. Thanks so much for all of the nice comments on Far Too Far!! I just don't get here often enough to respond, but I read and appreciate all of the nice things said.......means a great deal to me! I've always loved Christmas, and Christmas songs. I've posted several here over the years, but here is a link to one you haven't heard. There is a Christmas album with this one as well as those, and one or two others. I linked the previously unposted song but the others are there if you have any interest. All of them are quite traditional old school songs. This one is one that I would have loved to hear Frank sing. I think if I had to choose between the songs of Nat and Frank versus all other Christmas songs, I would choose the former....so much magic in their voices!! Merry Xmas, and hope you enjoy. Love to hear from you! Take care. Greg

Hold on to Christmas

It sometimes seems, that all your dreams
Haven’t bloomed and never will
And the summer sun is gone to soon
Given way to autumn chill
But there’s no heart that can’t be warmed
By the smile of young girls and boys
And the season is the reason for their joy

Hold on to Christmas
See through the eyes of a child
Cherish each moment and every embrace
Let your dreams run wild
Hold tight to that feeling
Be joyful in all that you do
Set your heart free and soon you will see
That Christmas lives in you

At Christmas time, we all try to find
Some magic if we can
And reflect upon a child of God
Who forgave the sins of man
To feel the warmth of folk and friend
And be thankful for His birth
A time to stop and pray for peace on earth

Hold on to Christmas
Find joy in just being alive
Smile for the sake of spreading so love
Let your good true spirt thrive
Don’t be afraid to wonder
If one day your dreams can come true
Set yourself free and soon you will
Christmas lives in you
