People find it hard to believe, but it’s true: I wrote this Christmas poem before I had ever met Carol. I had spoken with her often on the telephone, but we had never met. The first time we met was at Atlanta Hartsfield Airport, when she was visiting Georgia to attend a concert given every year by mutual friends of ours. I’ve often written of how “I just knew” that Carol was the one I was to spend the rest of my life with.
Carol arrived on a Wednesday night, and the concert was Friday. She helped me make changes to the work, and our friends hurriedly put the music together, and played this as a special song at the concert. I’ve always envisioned this as a new Christmas classic.
I got the idea a few days before Christmas, as I was getting ready for Carol’s visit. I was playing a favorite Christmas album (yes, and I still play albums), and, from out of nowhere, the phrase “Yuletide Carols” just seems to freeze in mid-air. So, I grabbed it, and wrote this in advance of Carol’s visit.

Yes, I know this is a Christmas poem, and yes, a love song. I was asked to include it here because it shows some variety in my work, and something I have said many times across the country: Men, it’s ok to love your wives. And, say so. It’s ok to love Jesus. And, say so. It’s ok to love your family. And, say so. I have seen churches where the men sit on one side and the women on the other. Or so it seemed. Or, certain men would sit together. Personally, I’m not ashamed to say that if I sit in church, or anywhere else, I’ll sit with Carol by my side. If I am guest speaker, or performer, I just don’t want to take the podium or stage without her being in the audience. To this day, she is my biggest fan.
So often, as part of an address, I’ve challenged the men: Men, if your wife is not your biggest fan, you’ve got problems. And, to the women: Ladies, if your husband is not your biggest fan, you’ve got problems. So, I am grateful for the opportunity to share this poem/song with you. I hope your enjoy it. And, again, it’s ok to love your wife! And, to say you do.
Blessings,

You’re My Yuletide Carol

You’re My Yuletide Carol

And I love you so

You’re My Yuletide Carol

I just want you to know

 

My Christmas wish comes true

As your plane touches down

I can’t wait, my dear

To show you the town

You’ve been so long in the frozen north

The stairs unfold as my holiday bursts forth

And you’re My Yuletide Carol

And I love you so

You’re My Yuletide Carol

And my heart’s all aglow

 

As I catch my first glimpse of you

At The gate

I know in an instant

That it was worth the wait

As your smile melted the icicles

From around my heart

I just can’t wait

For my holidays to start

 

My hopes and my dreams

Won’t be dashed through the snow

Cause you’re My Yuletide Carol

And I love you so

 

The nights are no more silent

My heart’s all aglow

And you’re My Yuletide Carol

And you’re as lovely as a bow

 

Oh! The sights that we will see

All over Christmas town

I’m so thankful that in your arms

This yuletide spirit I’ve found

Your love is enough

To last the year round

 

So much to see

So much to do

A few days left

And the holidays are through

You’re My Yuletide Carol

And I love you so

So soon you’ll be gone

Just like the snow

 

Christmas bells are all ringing

And the skies are so clear

A warm fire is burning

As I hold you near

The light in your eyes sparkle

Like the new fallen snow

The season soon over

Oh where, oh where did it go

 

And you’re My Yuletide Carol

And I just want you to know

You’re My Yuletide Carol

Do you really have to go

You’re My Yuletide Carol

Let’s just stay under the mistletoe

 

Time goes by so very fast

If only I could make

Something so wonderful last

You’re My Yuletide Carol

Do you really have to go

You’re My Yuletide Carol

And I love you so

Yes, you’re My Yuletide Carol

And I, Yes I, love you so
