He came stumbling home at midnight
With liquor on his breath
He forgot that it was Christmas Eve
He'd forgotten where he'd been
A pretty tree was in the corner
Prepared for Christmas Day
A voice came from his young girl's room
And this he heard her say
All I want for Christmas
Is my daddy to be saved
He don't mean to break our hearts
Forgive him, Lord, I pray
If you'll just help my daddy
I know that he will change
All I want for Christmas
Is my daddy to be saved
He listened there in silence
As teardrops filled his eyes
He ran into his darling's room
And knelt there by her side
He prayed, "Lord, if you will help me
And forgive me of my sins
You'll never have to hear
My darling daughter say again"
