Bless Us All

I love Christmas movies. One of my favorites happens to be The Muppets Christmas Carol. I just watched it this morning. It is, in my opinion, one of the best renditions of A Christmas Carol. It's funny and sweet and Michael Cain's performance as Ebenezer Scrooge is excellent.

One of the scenes I love is when Tiny Tim sings a song called Bless Us All. I love the words to it. Here they are.

Bless Us All


Life is full of sweet surprises
Everyday's a gift
The sun comes up and I can feel it lift my spirit
Fills me up with laughter, fills me up with song
I look into the eyes of love and know that I belong

Bless us all, who gather here
The loving family I hold dear
No place on earth, compares with home
And every path will bring me back from where I roam
Bless us all, that as we live
We always comfort and forgive
We have so much, that we can share
With those in need we see around us everywhere
 
Let us always love each other 
Lead us to the light
Let us hear the voice of reason, singing in the night
Let us run from anger and catch us when we fall
Teach us in our dreams and please, yes please
Bless us one and all 

Bless us all with playful years 
With noisy games and joyful tears
We reach for you and we stand tall 
And in our prayers and dreams
We ask you bless us all

We reach for you and we stand tall 
And in our prayers and dreams we ask you 
Bless us all
