My Grown Up Christmas List
2
Do you remember me…I sat upon your knee I wrote to you with childhood fantasies Well, I'm all grown up now and still need help somehow, I'm not a child but my heart still can dream So here's my lifelong wish my grown up Christmas list…Not for myself but for a world in need

My Grown Up Christmas List No more lives torn apart, that wars would never start, and time would heal the heart And everyone would have a friend and right would always win and love would never end oh, This is my grown up Christmas list

My Grown Up Christmas List As children we believed, the grandest sight to see was something shiny wrapped beneath the tree But heaven only knows, that packages and bows can never heal a hurting human soul What is this illusion called the innocence of youth maybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth

No More Lives Torn Apart Torn apart from God Isaiah 59:2 (NIV) 2 But your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear. Torn apart from each other Galatians 5:19-21 (NIV) 19 The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; 20 idolatry and witchcraft;
6
No More Lives Torn Apart hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 21 and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.

That Wars Would Never Start Romans 3:15-18 (NIV) 15 "Their feet are swift to shed blood; 16 ruin and misery mark their ways, 17 and the way of peace they do not know." 18 "There is no fear of God before their eyes." John 14:27 - Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. Romans 5:1 (NIV) 1 Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

That Time Would Heal Their Hearts Matthew 15:19 (NIV) For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander. 20 These are what make a man 'unclean';… Jeremiah 17:9 (NIV) 9 The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it? Time will not heal our hearts…

What Would Heal Our Hearts? Ezekiel 36:23-27 (NKJV) 23 And I will sanctify My great name, which has been profaned among the nations, which you have profaned in their midst; and the nations shall know that I am the Lord," says the Lord God, "when I am hallowed in you before their eyes. 24 For I will take you from among the nations, gather you out of all countries, and bring you into your own land
10
What Would Heal Our Hearts? 25 Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols. 26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you ; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. 27 I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them.

Everyone Would Have a Friend… John 15:15-16 (NKJV) 15 No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you. 16 You did not choose Me, but I chose you… John 15:13 (NKJV) 13 Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends. What a friend we have in Jesus!

Right Will Always Win Proverbs 12:28 (NKJV) 28 In the way of righteousness is life, And in its pathway there is no death. How do we get there? 2 Corinthians 5:21 (NIV) 21 God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

Love Will Never Ends Jeremiah 31:3 (NKJV) 3 The Lord has appeared of old to me, saying: "Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love; Therefore with lovingkindness I have drawn you. John 3:16 (NKJV) 16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 1:12 (NKJV) 12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name:
