Get Me Home By Christmas Eve

“GET ME HOME BY CHRISTMAS EVE”

Well I came and went as I pleased
And I never got down on my knees
So now I'm praying to God tonight
Please get me on this flight
Please get me home by Christmas Eve

I never knew how much I missed my wife
Never had love 'til she gave me life
So now I'm praying on bended knees
Lord let me make it please
Please get me home by Christmas Eve

Take me over the ocean
Spirit me across the waves
I've misplaced my devotion
But get me home and I'll be saved

I've been gone far too long from my girls
Stuck in deserts halfway 'round the world
I've seen too much of swirling sand
Lord take me to that land
Where snow's falling on Christmas Eve

Take me over the ocean
Spirit me across the waves
I've misplaced my devotion
But get me home and I'll be saved

[Chorus]
Please get me home by Christmas Eve
Will I make it there as they lead me to believe
Please don't let me be alone
I can't wait to see you home
Lord please get me home by Christmas Eve

Daylight breaks but I'm just halfway home
Over London after leaving Rome
After all of these empty miles
I'll see how my baby smiles
When I get home on Christmas Eve

Take me over the ocean
Get me home and I'll be saved

[Chorus]
Please get me home by Christmas Eve
There's no other place that I would rather be
Please don't let me be alone
I can't wait to see you home
Lord please get me home by Christmas Eve
Want to spend my Christmas day in the USA
Lord please get me home by Christmas Eve

Get me home
Get me home
