A Prayer for Every Year Chapter 4: December 4, a sue thomas: fb eye fanfic

The song isn't mine. It's Christmas is all in the Heart by Steven Curtis Chapmanand in my opinion a gift of something like this is better than a physical present. I know I'm plugging away here at the chapters but I'm kind of behind and I'm trying to get up to today, today. Hope you enjoyed them and they're not as forced as I feel they are.

A Prayer for Every Year

December 4th
Today there was no gift. Not a plausible I'm-spending-money-on-you gift. Instead, it was something that she felt hit a little closer to the heart. There were values that had been engrained into Sue's head since she was a little girl and they came out in everything that she did. Especially at Christmas time. She had mentioned to her co-workers that she often gave new unwrapped toys to family services around the DC area and had one year adopted a whole family and badgered people to help gather things for them. Lucy had set one up for their team this year.
So she wasn't surprised to find the song matched what she felt about Christmas to the very letter. After all, she had always been taught Christmas was all in the heart. She looked carefully at the lyrics and, for the first time in a while, cursed her deafness. She read over the words again.
IN a one bedroom apartment on the humble side of town
There stands a little Christmas tree looks a lot like Charlie Brown's
And underneath there's one little gift for him and one little gift for her
After six months on the new job they're still barely getting by
So in the way of decoration there's nothing there to catch your eye
And both of them will be the first to say we're together, we're gonna have a merry Christmas anyway

Christmas is all in the Heart
That's where the feeling starts and like a fire inside
It touches every part 'cause Christmas is all in the heart
And even if no white snow falls that's all right because
The joy can still be found wherever you are 'cause Christmas is all
All in the Heart

Two little blond boys with big dreams tried to sleep but sleep wouldn't come
And you'd be tearing into presents long before the break of dawn
With mom and dad and cameras making sure we'd never forget that day
Now I'm the one who's taking pictures in the middle of the night
Of my own blond headed dreamers who just can't wait until daylight
And in my sleepy eyes the spark still glows
I guess there's just some things a kid never out grows

No it's not in the snow may or may not fall
And it's not in the gifts around the tree
It's in the love heaven gave the night our saviour came
And I'd say love can still be found wherever you are
Cause Christmas is all in the heart
And the joy can still be found wherever you are 'cause Christmas is all
All in the heart
It's all in the heart
Whoever her secret Santa was, knew her well. She wasn't trained FBI for nothing. Lucy had mentioned more than once about her suspicion about a certain team leader, but every time, Sue shrugged it off, believing that in no way could it be Jack. This, however, made her re-think her denial.
