But for some it’s surviving
just another day
No family around to feel loved and proud
Just existing as you are the only one in the crowd
A heartbreaking story about a child with no toy
For them there will be no Christmas joy
No talk of spotting Santa throughout the night
Instead huddling in the corner around a dim candle light
The old lady at the checkout with a minute turkey crown
Searching in her purse as she is still one pound down
Quietly whispering she’ll have to put it back
Slowly shuffling away with no food in her sack
The parents struggling under the Christmas stress
No presents bought and no tree to dress
A unethical loan company there only way out
Unable to cope they just scream and shout
I urge every one of us to think of others and share
And show a generation that we really do care
Set an extra place for that special Christmas meal
Or donate some food for this heartfelt appeal
