by CLAIRE
SO SAD REALLY SAD

WOW
by Erin
I first heard this song by chance. I got in my car to grab something and caught the middle of it. I sat there, listening to the rest of the song with tears in my eyes the entire time. when i finally made it back inside my boyfriend asked what had taken me so long and what was wrong. I explained to him about the song i had just heard. this song hit home for me. i grew up the daughter of an army man and i remember those christmass when he was not home. my boyfriend is also a military man who just recently, in september, returned home from iraq. we are now expecting a child of our own and all i could think about is what it would be like if he were gone for another christmas, especially now with a child along the way. this song was AMAZING!!!

So sweet
by Mimsy(nickname)
This song has touched so many people, and will continue to as it is played. everyone in my family plays it over and over, and we cry every time. The video makes us cry so much more. This song will be a hit for years to come.

The Children
by Rebecca Sorrells
It's the children who don't understand why they are there..that broke my heart to hear that little girl sing that song. I have 4 grandchildren and could not imagine having to explain to them why their daddy is not home for Christmas.That ws sooo beautiful I sure hope she gets her Christmas wish. Rebecca Sorrells b5rockz@aol.com

Singalong
by Chuck
the lyrics on the singalong page are wrong so i fixed them: "Bring Him Home Santa" Dear Santa, I need to change my Christmas list There's one big thing I missed You see my Daddy's working far away from here And you know Santa, I asked for a Barbie doll And a brand new soccer ball But I'd trade it all, for just one gift this year... Bring him home Santa, bring him home to mom and me Let us wake up Christmas morning, and find him standing by our tree You can pick him up on your way, he could ride there in your sleigh Don't make him spend Christmas all alone Bring him home And Santa, here's a picture that I drew Of him in his dress blues Mama says our country needs him over there And you know Santa, this whole year I have been good And I was hopin' that you would Do all you could to answer her prayer... Bring him home Santa, bring him home to mom and me Let us wake up Christmas morning, and find him standing by our tree You can pick him up on your way, he could ride there in your sleigh Don't make him spend Christmas all alone Bring him home You can pick him up on your way, he could ride there in your sleigh Don't make him spend Christmas all alone Bring him home Bring him home Bring him home Bring him home

This Song
by Shannon
As I'm sitting here typing this message, I am crying my eyes out. This song truly hits home. As a child of a Veteran who was in the Navy for 23 1/2 years, you can bet myself and my family support the troops and their families. I have friends who have been over in Iraq and Afghanistan. Our community has even lost a young man over in Iraq. Americans need to join together in supporting these men and women and their families. The children suffer the most because they don't understand. We just tell them to be brave and they are just that, BRAVE. God Bless all of our troops, their families, and their CHILDREN. Their the ones who make us step back and really think about what is happening.

wow

navy brat
by ashley
I heard this song for the first time on christmas day sitting with my whole family this year...it made me cry though thinking of all the years that my family was not together on christmas because my dad was in the navy for 20 years, the whole time that i was growing up. there were so many years that we were not all together and this song was the perfect explanation of that feeling of your daddy not being there...she has such a sweet, innocent, cute voice. definitely love this song!!!!

I like the song:)

WOW
by Jeff
One of the greatest songs I've ever heard in my life

I did cry...and I think America as a nation should hear this.......
by Heather
I've served now for 2 yrs. I'm a single mother to a beautiful 6 yr old daughter. Last Christmas, I fell in love with my fiance, an Army medic serving in Afghanistan with the 173rd. My daugther loves him just as much as I do. He was able to spend last Christmas with us, but unfortunately-was unable to this yr. My daughter, along with me and the rest of our families, were heartbroken. My daughter told everyone that her dad was protecting others who needed him more, but I could see the hurt in her eyes. My mother sent me this song tonight and boy!!! I'm STILL crying!!! Thank you for this song. For all of you out there serving our country or waiting here at home...THANK YOU!! Thank you for your sacrifice. You are ALL in my prayers everynight. God Bless........until they all come home......

Amazing
by Orlane,Australia

We watched this video together with her mother and new baby sisiter (which my son-in-law has not seen) we all cried. My granddaughter has all ready learned the words to the song. Thanks so much.

God Bless our troops!!!!!
by a touched listener
my uncle is currently in afganistan right now and when i heard this song i thought of my little cousin; his 5 year old daughter. this is a very beautiful and touching song, i began cying once i heard it. God Bless all of our troops and may they all return home safely.

by Josh
I agree with Hannah on how well it is written!!

Christmas Song
by Karen
Thank you for writing such a beautiful song. I weeped through it thinking of all the children without their daddies and mommies and also for all the brave men and women serving in the military away from home. I thought the little girl chosen to sing the song was perfect. You're right; she added purity and innocence and was the best choice for a moving piece. Thank you!

Thanks for giving folks a spot to share the impact this song has had. Can't wait for the next "Song Trust" creation. When the numbers are in, could you tell us the amount raised for St. Jude?

Made me cry.
by Jody
This song and the story behind it is so touching. I cried like a baby. It saddens my heart because i know so many little ones miss their parent or parents fighting this war. This is now my all time favorite song ever! I made my husband listen to it and just hearing the song again brought me to tears. God Bless all of our soldiers fighting this war. I pray for the safe return. I thank you all from the bottom of my heart. I truly appreciate all you are doing for our country.

Bring them home
by Kaitlyn
This song really hit home for me. My dad was also in the army in Iraq for 11 months. I was 9 and my brother was 6. He is home now. He came home on Christmas Day of 2004. We all had a joyous Christmas together. Now he is out of the military.

by Jack

Bring Him Home Santa
by The Andersons
This is a song to remind us all what war is like for children with their dads, brothers, and others in battle for America. It will probably be sung each year until the war is over. It's truly beautiful as is the little girl's voice. God bless all of those who are in harm's way; we should pray daily for them to return safely home and also for our President to know when to call our heroes home. Thanks for sharing this beautiful song.

very touching
by Cindy Swimley
My son-in-law was killed in iraq feb 16,05. My daughter Christine is going on with her life, but there isn't a day that goes by that we don't think about this. I have another son-in-law that is over there, we pray all the time that he makes it home, alive. This is a wonderful song. I wrote a poem in 2005 and would love to have a song made for it, and get it published. If your interested, please feel free to contact me at cindyswimley@yahoo.com. good work and keep it coming. God Bless all of our troops.

Beautiful
by LacyKay
My brother is in the Marines, currently stationed in Iraq. This was our family's first Christmas without him. As I heard this song, I started to cry. You really captured what so many of us are feeling as we pray for our loved ones in the military, loved ones who are far away from us. We only want them to come home safely. Thank you for this beautiful song. I pray it will open the eyes of those who are opposed to our military personnel and make them realize that our troops are people too, and they're out there protecting our entire country. This song was absolutely wonderful. I hope to hear more songs addressing our military.

Bring Them Home
by J.Leigh
As A mother who remembers past wars how we all wanted our dad and family members home. Times have not change. GOD BLESS OUR TROUPS AND MAY HE KEEP THEM IN HIS HANDS TILL THEY ARE ALL HOME..

by Amy
I just heard this song and started crying its amazing

LOVE IT!!!
by Jennifer & Levi
My husband and I absolutely LOVE this song!!! It is So awesome!!! The first time I heard it, we were sitting at FLYING J. My husband was checking the air pressure in the tires. It came on and I listened. I started crying, hoping that my husband would quickly get back in the car and at least hear the end. He got in the car when it was over, and I told him that he missed an awesome song. I turned up the radio even more to hear who sang it, or how I could hear it again. They announced this website on 93.3. I came home and logged on. This song is very touching to us because my husband is in the United States Marine Corps. He is expected to be deployed at the end of next year. It rips my heart out to know that he may be gone. I pictured our 14 month old daughter singing it. We are so thankful to the other men and women out there serving and fighting for our country. Thank you for this awesome song!

Bring Him Home
by Tiffany
This song brought tears to my eyes! I pray that God will be with the little boys and girls that are in a situation like this. I love this song! Note: To: Everyone Hey, Be thankful for every moment that you have with your family and friends! God Bless All!

HEART WRENCHING
by CINDY F. FROM CALLAHAN, FLORIDA
I WAS ON MY WAY HOME FROM DOING SOME LAST MINUTE CHISTMAS SHOPPING, WHEN WQIK FM-99.1 IN JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA PLAYED THIS SONG. I CRIED SO HARD THAT I COULDN'T HARDLY SEE TO DRIVE. THE LITTLE GIRL SINGING THAT SONG TUGGED AT MY HEART & SOUL. I HAD TO GO TO THIS WEBSITE SO THAT MY HUSBAND COULD HEAR THIS SONG. THE EFFECT ON HIM WAS THE SAME. HEART WRENCHING. I IMMEDIATELY THANKED GOD FOR ALL MY FAMILY BEING HERE WITH ME, AND PRAYED FOR THE FAMILIES THAT HAD TO SACRIFICE THEIR LOVED ONES TO FIGHT FOR ALL OF US. I STILL SHAKE THE HANDS OF EVERYONE I MEET THROUGH MY JOB THAT IS IN THE MILITARY AND THANK THEM FOR FIGHTING FOR MY FREEDOM. I PRAY FOR ALL OUR TROOPS AND FOR THEIR SAFE RETURN HOME. GOD BLESS THEM ALL AND MOST OF ALL, GOD BLESS AMERICA !!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!

MY EYES GET FILLED UP WITH TEARS!
by A PROUD COUSIN!
EVERY TIME I HEAR THIS WONDERFUL SONG I THINK TO MYSELF, " A LOT OF FAMILIES HAVE THIS VERY PROBLEM". I HAVE A FAMILY MEMBER IN THE MILITARY AND JUST B4 XMAS I SAW HIM FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 3 MONTHS. HES GONNA LEAVE AGAIN SOON AND I WILL CRY WHEN HE COMES BACK U CAN COUNT ON IT!! CAN YOU GUESS WHO I AM UNCLE RORY?

Thank you
by DeeDee Plattsburgh N.Y.
i was in my car when I heard this, my son just joined and will be going away all I could think of was my 4 year old grandaughter and what my son and baby girl will be missing. Then I thought of all the people that are going through this right now. God Bless all the families that are without a loved one. Again Thank You.

Thank you and thank you Santa
by Erica
I love this song and the first time I heard it, I cried. I did get my Christmas wish and my man was able to come home for Christmas. He is leaving for his second tour to Iraq. I love being able to hear all the support that is still out there. Thank you for those you serve and to my man, I love you.

Beautiful Song
by Anna Cmil
I don't personally know anyone who is overseas right now but when my friend and i found the video on 99.5 WYCD's website we were both in tears. at one point my husband before we were married wanted to join the military in some form, but i begged him not to because i selfishly wanted to keep him safe and stateside with me. i have so much respect for the men and women who risk their lives over in Iraq and this song really made me think of them and the families they have left here. thank you for creating such a beautiful tribute to the men and women who serve in our military.

thank you thank you thank you
by shaun paskett
that is such an awesome song. my heart goes out to all of the families that are sacrificing their lives for my freedom. I pray that all of the service men & women will come home safe and soon. Words cant express my deep gratitude for all that they are doing for my family myself and the country. Stay safe and COME HOME SOON!!!!!!

the song
by leyton

the song
by Tori & Granny, Kansas City MO
Thank you and may God bless you for the gift you have given many with this song.

It's After Christmas
by Gerry
It's After Christmas and I hope that we all don't forget that they are still there. I absolutly loved the song and relate in two ways. I relate first as a prior service soldier that spent time in two different conflicts in the late 80's, early 90's and I also relate as the husband of a current soldier, who is an Iraqi war Veteran who served in OIF 3. This song was so awesome. We both cried when we heard it. My wife almost missed Christmas in 05, but we got lucky and she came home on 14 Dec. Let us never forget the sacrafice and love that each Soldier, Salior and Marine have given, both in the past and now, so that we may sleep comfortably in our beds and have the freedom to say and do as we please. GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS!!!!!

TOUCHED
by SHEYENNE
I FIRST HEARD THIS ON THE RADIO AND I THOUGHT I WISH I COULD DO SOMETHING TO HELP THE FAMILIES WITH PEOPLE IN THE WAR. I CRYED WHEN I HEARD THIS SONG. THE SOLDIERS ARE AMAZING. WWWWWWWWWEEEEEEEEEEEE LLLLOVE YYYYYYOOOOOOOUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!

Wonderful
by Maggie Mannebach
Well, what can I say! It is one of the most beautiful and sweet songs that I have ever heard. My grandfather served in the navy and it reminds me that so many people risk their lives for us. The first time I heard that song I was crying, even though I am only 9 years old it's still reminds me that when we pray, we should still say a couple of prayers for them. I love that song, every time I hear it I always wan to sing along and am happy that so many brave men and women served our country.

this is so pretty!!!
by Vikki
this is beautiful!! its so touching!! reminds me of my dad!!

THANK YOU
by Jolene, Aron, and Kaylynne Grabeal
I may not have a dad fighting in the war, but I do have a brother fighting over there this song means so much to me and my family. My brother has 2 kids that had a Christmas without their dad and I know that their are many more families out there that went through the same thing. This song really hits home in so many different ways. I am glad to finally hear a song that was sung by a child, that really means so much to so many people, I don't think had that song been sung by an adult, that it would have meant so much. I think that what the label company is doing with the proceeds is a wonderful thing. God Bless You All!!! Jolene - brother in the Army Aron - brother in law in the Army Kaylynne - uncle in the Army

this song is beautiful
by magan

Bring him home Santa
by Joyce Cantrell
I just listened to this song for the first time and altho I don't have any loved ones overseas, my husband was in the military years ago and served his time. The song was a very compasionate song and so good. God Bless you whoever wrote it, and the little voice that sang it did a wonderful job. Thanks again. JC

The best Christmas song of 2007
by Rita
When i watched the video on youtube with the images it made me cried too.. i can imagine how hard will be for military's wives and for children wait for their siblings come home. I think this song has a good message " bring him home" next year will be the 2008 Presidential Election and We have to find a candidate who wants to bring them home ASP. I heard about Ron Paul's message, so far he is the only candidate who talks about bringing the troops home. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Beautiful!
by mamawluvsu in ky
My son and his wife both are in the army and have gone to Iraq twice already and may be going again in 2007. This song really hit home for me. Thank you so much!!

by Unknown
Well, I love this song. My brother as playing it on the computer the other day and i started to cry. My mom came into the room and she asked whats wrong, so I told her to listen to it and she started to cry. From then on i have had most of my friend listen to it, they thought it was wonderful. it really touched me.

Song/Video
by Dana
That was so beautiful and touching. It made me cry. I wish all the troops could come home, especially on the holidays. God bless each and every one of them.

WONDERFUL!!!!
by Army SGT
All I can say is WOW! I heard this song for the first time driving home from my night shift. I couldn't help but to tear up. It reminded me of the day I left for my deployment. I deployed when my son was 6 months old and was gone for a year. That was the longest and hardest year of my life. Just to be able to hug him and my wife when I got back was the most wonderful feeling in the world. To all those serving this wonderful country, I just want to say that you are in my family's prayers everyday.

I Miss Him
by Caitlin-Proud Army Fiance
I love this song..my fiance is deployed right now. And it kills me he's not home but christmas totally killed me today. I miss him like crazy and i can't wait till he's home....cuz than we can get married! God Bless all our military families and there loved ones deployed all over the world. GO ARMY!!

by Medic Milton
Getting ready to go back for my second tour.. Hearing this on Christmas Day, having already said good bye to my brother who is in Customs Training but was in Abu Ghriab in 2004... It hurt.. Such a good song... Very true. This is the first Christmas in the past three that I have been able to make after 15 months of deployment, and having to leave right after this one.. really touches a soldier.. Knowing the pain my soldiers went through.. It really is nice to hear the naivety in children every now and then. Thank you..

away for xmas
by dan martin
my son in law is in southern iraq this christmas. we have been able to talk with him and see him through the internet. this song and the attatched video is really something else. sure made me cry. i am sad that we are at war but am gratful that it is over there and not here. it surtainly could be. i am gratful that we have these soldiers willing to go and protect our freedoms and sacrifice their time away from family. the marquee at my store says, 'Love freedom- thank a soldier". that is how i feel and we should especially honor them upon return, i know i will. God bless the soldiers and thanks for that lovely song

Dear Santa song
by Jan Brown
Why am I sitting here bawling listening to this song? My Marine son made it home for this Christmas and yet this song got to me. A biker friend shared the link on a biker forum to one of the youtube videos of this song. I am a former Navy wife so fully understand the "missing you and wishing you were home" feelings...there are several male bikers admitting this made them cry too!Thank you for this wonderful heart felt song...

Bring Him Home
by Ken Rusnell

by Linda
I just heard this song for the first time today and it really had the terars flowing!!! I don't have any kids, just a niece and 2 nephews. Am getting ready to go spend Christmas with my family and possiblly the last one since my lil brother is going to Iraq in May of 2008. I also have a cousin and friends that are in Iraq now. I keep all the servicemen and woman in my thoughts and prayers for a safe return home. Thank you so much for serving our country and fighting for our freedom!!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS TO EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!

Thoughst of Christmas Past
by Peggy
This songs reminds me of last year when my grandson was in Bagdad Iraq.That was the first time away at Christmas and Christmas was a different one; every member of the family was down ,he had lost a member of the platoon about three days before Christmas.Our thoughts were with that family---------------He's home this year and doing well.

Just Wonderful
by Rose Cobb
To me a good song is one that you hear once and love instantly. This is one of those songs and I plan on buying it for anyone in my family that I know will love it and appreciate it just as much as me. I have heard it a few times and had told my mother about it but it never came on the radio at the right time and when I found this web site I could finally play it for my mom. We listened to it on Christmas Day with our hearts aching and tears streaming! I would love to meet the little girl who sang it.

Military Wife
by Melissa
I cried when i heard the song. I was told about it, but hadn't heard it. When i finally did, i just cried. My husband is overseas right now. Hopefully soon to be on his way home. So let's put our thoughts and prayers together for the soliders safe return home. Happy Holidays.

So Special
by SGT Trindi Collins, US Army, Fort Sill, OK
I just wanted to tell you how much this song means to me. My best friend is in Iraq right now. Everytime I hear this, I think about his 5 yr old little girl and that it is her singing it to Santa. This song probably puts into words what so many families are feeling right now. Thank you so much for writing it!!

Beautiful!

by Mark M
I am ten year Marine Corps vet and this song is just the greatest. It makes me cry and thats ok. If this song could reach and touch all of the people protesting what our troops are fighting for half as much as it has me then we could all support my brothers in arms they way we all should.

this is amazing
by Amy
I just heard this song and started crying its amazing

by Military Daughter
This song is amazing! It makes me cry every time I hear it! We are lucky enough to have my father home for Christmas this year, but next year he will be over in Iraq for Christmas. Thanks so much for showing you're support for the troops!

by Military Daughter
This song is amazing. Because this is our Dad's second Christmas that he will miss with us for being deployed to Iraq. He has two little sons that are under 3 so this song is perfect. Thanks for all your support.

Great Song
by Liz (Nana)
I am the Grandmother of three children, whose Daddy is in the Navy. I can"t get their faces out of my mind and I felt their feelings in my heart the several Christmas their Daddy was deployed. The song really makes you think what the meaning of family and love for each other is, especially at Christmas time. My daughter had to be Mom and Dad, like many others and it is not an easy task. Tht song brought tears to my eyes and a lump in my throat, but I would listen to it time and time again.

Bring Him Home
by Moe and Bobbie
My husband and I ride with the Patriot Guard Riders. We hold flag line at funeral, welcome home events and send off for our troops. This song really touch our hearts. Thanks so much for writing it and making it available to hear.

Wow!
by Military Brat
Being a military brat and having a sister in the Air Force, I must say this song has brought me to tears not just for myself but for others. When I first heard this song it brought back memories. And when I saw the video especially the last minute it brought me tears. Good Job.

this is the best christmas song
by Sophia
This song made me cry drivin down the road.. although i have both parents at home both were part of the military status way back when i was little. i have lots of friends in the army and i miss them greatly.

Awesome & Touching
by A Soldiers Angel
The song is great. I'm a proud military wife, and my husband was just deployed for his 2nd time in Iraq. Holiday's are hard, but I know hes doing what he want's to do & that defend his Country. Heard this song coming down the road and it me so hard, because I'd give anything to have my husband home with me. God bless our Soldier's!

Legacy
by Kelley
Every now and then a song, a memory, a poem ,or a wish can touch the heart of this nation. When that happens you realize we really have not lost ourselves to commerialism nor are we so jaded we do not remember the innocence of simple belief and longing. Your song reminds us that as a people we all share some important values. The fact that it touches so many of us should give us all faith in ourselves-so many of us do care!. Thank you for creating a song that reminds us that so many simple things are bigger than ourselves. Your words and a small child's voice have spoke to so many hearts-it is a legacy of love! You both may go on to write many other songs, and touvh many other hearts, but this song...for this moment in time...is a legacy you can and should be proud of!

Very touching
by Marine Wife
This song really hit home for me. This will be the first Christmas my husband and I have not been together for and our son's first Christmas, whom he has never met. He deployed 6 weeks before our son was born. This is his second and last tour and thankfully we will be together soon. I send out my thanks and gratitude to all who serve and to their families for supporting them. God bless!

thank you
by NavyDaughter
I cry as i listen to this song.....It speaks so much...I just want to say thank you to all the men and women who are serving to protect our great country.

What an amazing song
by CCarton547@aol.com
I wanted to say Merry Christmas to all the soldiers and there familys. This little girl had a dream that I really hope does come true this Christmas. THANK YOU SO MUCH TROOPS for all your hard work.

awesome
by Rachel
well i would like to say that it touched my heart and that my grandpa was in the war and he barley made it home for christmas. i was not born yet but my grandma told me all about that sad day where we all thought we was not coming home for christmas. Also i would like to add that i have some realy colse friends that are going to the war and going over seas. This song realy made me cry. the first time heard it was on the phone with my boyfriend. so i started crying and he thought it was him why i was crying.

Touching
by Nick
This is an amazing song and it sure touches a lot of people. Especially me being a veteran and knowing what it is like spending Christmas alone. Witnessing the situations first hand and only wishing that they would allow all the troops to come home to their families. I've seen many families torn apart and being torn apart due to the long tours spent in Iraq and Afganistan by their family members and this song makes me pray for and wish the best to every family out there that has thier dad, mom, brother, son, daughter, wife, etc...... overseas serving in our military that cant come home to see their loved ones. I pray for your familys every day to be re-united soon!!! Thought and prayers go out to you all.

wonderful job
by Haleigh
She is such good singer for such a young child. this song has touched many souls i'm sure of that. it has always made me think of all the young children who might not have there mom or dad or both parents with them this Christmas. And i just hope that the Lord will bring them home safely for all the little kids!

BRING HIM HOME SANTA
by Some who Cares
THANKS FOR A SONG THAT BRINGS THE TRUTH HOME - THE WISHES TO LIFE AND THE DREAMS OF A LITTLE ONE TO THE FOREFRONT OF WHY WE PRAY FOR EVERY SOLIDIER, FIREFIGHTER, POLICEMAN AND OTHERS THAT RISK THEIR LIVES EVERYDAY TO MAKE IT HOME NOT JUST FOR THE HOLIDAYS BUT HOME. THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME REALIZE AGAIN WHAT THE CHRISTMAS SEASON IS ALL ABOUT.

very good
by jordin
this is a really really good song!!!!!!!!!!it made me and my aunt cry because her husband is a marine and we really really miss him!!!!!!!!!!!

Touching
by Lori
I am at a loss of words...this is such a sweet and wonderful song. My husband has been deployed for 1 month now, out of a 15 month tour to Iraq. My 5 children miss him so very much. This song really tells exactly how they are feeling this holiday season. It is their Christmas wish as well. Thanks for sharing!

I can't believe it!
by Natasha Jerome
I was driving down the road the other day when this song came on the radio. I listened to it closely, like I do for all songs that I have ever heard before. But this time it was different. For the first time ever I started to cry while listening to the words of a song. Then to my surprise my 4 year old daughter started to sing along, she knows almost every word. She said, "momma this is my song." She loves it so much, as do the rest of us. I would like to say that I am so thankful for all those men and women who are fighting for our country. God Bless all of them and there families for what they sacrifice! Hope they all have a safe and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! One more thing before I go....This song is one that will touch many peoples hearts and will be remembered for years to come. Great job!

Touching song
by Paige Crocker
That is a very touching song it reminds me of when my grandfather was in the army and was not there for one year. We missed him and we did not see him for Christmas or Easter. But you have an amazing voice and that song is so lovly I request it all the time on Q104

This song made me cry
by Lily D.
My husband is currently stationed in Afghanistan. Our baby girl was born less than two weeks ago and I know he would give anything to be able to spend this x-mas with us. Even though this song is not military related I know that many military wives are listening to this song and thinking of their wonderful husbands who they cannot be with at this special time. It's a beautiful song....

Wonderful Song it really hits home
by Debbie
This song is wonderful. I heard it in the car this morning and tears just started coming. My husband is in the Navy. He isn't deployed but he goes to sea and I can just see our daughter doing the same thing when she is older. Thank you for this precious song.

AWESOME!!!!!!!
by Jason Sparks
There are no words for this song. I'm a 31 y.o. male but I had to pull over because I couldnt see through the tears. NO child should have to be out without a parent(s) and as a young child I'm sure it's got to be hard to understand why mommy or daddy arent here for Christmas. THANK YOU to all the enlisted and thier families for putting your lives on the line for just for me. I pray you have the Merriest Christmas possiable.

I love this song!
by HaNnAh
The first time i heard this song i was on my way to a soccer game with some of my friends and we all just stopped talking and listened and we all started crying! This song is so well written and is just amazing! This video is very amazing! Well done and ccongratulations... I hope you get your Christmas wish!

OMG!!
by a student
My teachers has three sons in the Army but one of them doesnt get to come home. He is finishing up his training in Arizona I think and they wont let him come home, recieve lettyers or packages so they dont get to send him his presents. He is going to Iraq this spring and i pray that the Lord will always be with him.

Brought tears to my eye
by Jean
This song really touched my heart, because my dad is retired Air Force, and I have friends who have been over there for at least 2 tours now and just made it home from Iraq for the Holidays. It brought tears to my eyes. My mom is the one who told me about this song and this song even brought tears to her eyes. They are over there fighting for our freedom and we take things for granted. This time of the year is when we really have to think about the men and women over there fighting for us. THANK YOU SO MUCH TO ALL THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO ARE FIGHTING FOR US. Thank you for writing this song. It means so much. THANKS.

Beautiful
by Tonya.. North Carolina
Thank you for doing a song that says what's in all of our hearts. It really touched me. Very well done. Such an angelic voice. May God bless and continue to watch over our troops everywhere and their families and friends that are missing them from so far away.

What An Absolute SWEET And Heartfelt Song

Thank you.
by Jeremy
As a Marine I just have to say thank you for this song. Its not often a song brings me to tears but this one hit me pretty hard. I just got back from a deployment in Iraq, but while out there on a call back home one of the questions my nephews asked me on the phone was if I would be home for xmas, the oldest even said he wrote a letter to Santa asking him to bring me home. I know this song has touched alot of people and says what alot of families out there want to say.

GOD BLESS THEM ALL
by Annette Collins
Thank you now that I went through a box of tissues, but it was worth every tear. GOD BLESS AND KEEP ALL OUR HEROES SAFE. Bring them all home, thanks for that awesome video. GOD BLESS AMERICA. Annette Collins Summerville, SC GOD BLESS AMERICA THE GREATEST COUNTRY EVER

Very Beautiful
by Karen
My family and I are very fortunate not to have any loved ones gone for the holidays or at any time for that matter. What a lovely way to support our people and loved ones who are protecting all of us. I think that this has to be the most beautiful song that I have ever heard. I am sure that that is how the angels sound when they are singing. You have a beautiful voice little one.

Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
by Raj
This is a nice song. It made me cry.More people should hear this song. I felt their pain when I watched the video. I now know how it feels to be far away from your kids to protect. Even though I am going to feel this pain when I am older, I would still defend this country so my kids can have Christmas. Merry Christmas to the troops and the U.S.A.

Great job !
by Carly
I liked to give a thumbs up to that video! I just saw what little kids go through when there mom or dad has to go to Iraq or somewhere far away. I want to wish all the troops a Merry Christmas and a happy new year and especially a safe one!!

I Love This Song
by proud army wife stout
I love this song, i tear up every time I hear it. I get this picture in my head of my little girl when I hear it. This song really hits my heart my husband just left in september for a 15 month deployment. This is our first christmas without him. But thank you so much for making this song. We love it

Beautifully done!
by Jennifer
I love that, in your song diary, you say that this song was from the Lord! He works in marvelous ways! This song is beautiful and very touching. I know it is the true wish of so many children around our country tonight. My prayers and thoughts are with them all. I want all of our troops to know that how very much I appreciate the sacrifices that they and their families make for our country. Thank you for sharing this song!

by Rose
Honest to God truth, the first time I heard this song, I didn't stop crying for about 10 minutes. This song is just absolutely amazing. I have seen several videos made for this song, and they are all amazing. I have also made a video for this song. It took me about 5 hours, but it's worth watching. This is the video, if you want to watch it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89CAMAX3b6s My heart goes out to any and all military out there this Christmas.

What a Beautiful song

From an Armywife..
by The Albertson Family
I first heard this song on myspace a few weeks ago. I opened it not realizing how touching it would be to both my daughter who is 5 and myself. All month we have been counting down til Christmas without daddy. He just recently left on his second tour to Iraq. Just a few days prior, she had realized that daddy would not be coming home for Christmas. This song is so sweet and we just wanted to thank you for writing such a beautiful song! I hope that it has touched many others and helped them to realize what our military is sacraficing for their freedom. God Bless.

It was so touching
by Sandra Ward
Listening to the song for the first time brought tears to my eyes. My heart goes out to all the little girls and boys who are without their dads and moms this Christmas. I wish Santa could "bring them all home"

Hey
by Olivia
Anyone who is in the military, this song is something that i hope all you and your families hear, and i give u my thanks for protecting our country. This place would never be the same without you. God bless all the families that have people fighting in the war over Christmas, and any other time. Anyone who takes their time to read this message, remember america's worst day- September 11th, 2001, one if the worst terrorist attacks in america. If i had to go to special forces, i would gladly do it for u guys. Merry Christmas and god bless you all

This was such a great idea
by cheyenne
the first cuple times i heard this song it made me cry sooo hard......and what hurt me the most is when that one guy was crying because he spent christmas all alone...........and i bet alot of kids are going to sing this song for their talent show or whatever.......man this is such a touching story/song...........this song is spreding more and more and it is a great sight to see when soldiers get to see their families for christmas and it is hard to look at those soldiers who dont get to celebrate christmas....... thank you troops for keeping us safe

very nice
by matt eames
im in the british army and i know lots of children wish the same for xmas xxxx

Very Touching!!
by Judy from Pa.
This is an amazing song, the little girl singing it did an awesome job. The first time I heard it was on Froggy 98.1. I cry everytime I hear it. I bought the song and downloaded it onto Itunes, then burned it on a cd. Everytime I go in my car I listen to it and at work. Anyone that would listen to this song and not cry does not have a heart. Prayers go out to our Service men and women fighting for our country...God Bless America. It is a terrific song and very heartfelt!!

Bring him home Santa
by powmiadaughter
God this makes you tear up if you have any heart at all. I saw my daddy leave for Vietnam in 1965 , he was captured in October of 65 and how I wished on Christmas for Santa to bring him home. I am still wishing that Santa will bring him home. I love this song, the families and troops are our greatest wealth. May all them soon be reunited.

Christmas
by Meg Sidbury
My dad is also in the Navy and he's going to miss Christmas next year, for the 5th time. I'm really going to miss him and i'm probably going to have to sing this song to myself, or put the lyrics near the milk and cookies! You have a wonderful voice and i love to sing along to this song. YOU ROCK!!!

This Song is Great
by Aimee-PA
The first time I heard this song I cried and each time I hear it I cry. I am 7 months pregnant and I help Military families with their healthcare and I can only imagine what the wifes, husbands, and children are going through. My husband would love to go into the Military but I dont think I could handle that. God Bless everyone that does have a family member overseas and have a safe holiday season.

GOD BLESS THE CHILDREN
by Daddy's girl
As an adult this song touches me but as a child of a soldier I remember my Dad not being home for Christmas. The men and women who give their time and lives to protect this country can only be called heroes, but, the families who pray for the safe return of a loved one are just as much a hero in my mind. I pray for the families of every soldier who won't be home this year and I hope those soldiers know how much they are appreciated and loved by the people at home. My mom used to tell us that Daddy may not be here with us but his spirit and courage lived in us every day. God bless the children, young and old.

so adorable
by Mandy
this song is so cute and touching it almost made me cry it is sad and cute at the same time. Great job keep writing songs and sining u could become famous someday Let me no if he came home send me and e-mail at princessm095@yahoo.com telling me if he made it home

Merry Christmas
by P. Foster
Wonderful song! Very touching. God Bless

the most sad song
by Dallas
that is the most sad song that i have ever hear in my life no child should ever have to wish for something like that for Christmas i give my up most respect to the little girl and her dad every time i play this song i cry and that is coming from a man that said he will never cry. GOD BLESS AMERICA AND OUR TROOPS OVER SEAS

Thank you
by Carly
I wanted to attempt to say thanks through the teary eyes. My husband (a Marine) is deployed (again) this Christmas, as well. For the last 7 Christmas seasons, we have been apart 6 times, and last year was actually our first year together ever. We do not have children (we want them, we are told we probably cannot have children), and this time of the year is so hard. It can be easy at times to be depressed and self-centered about "how bad it is that your husband is gone", but then being reminded about the little kids with a parent or two gone really helps me regain perspective and pick my head up. I don't pretend to know what it's like to be that child or to be the mother of a child in that position, because it's different with children, but I know what it's like to be alone for Christmas, and I want to thank you for helping the rest of the world see things a little better. God bless you!

song
by alisha
i love that song

i was so moved by this song
by Tina
I was on my way home from a christmas party and I heard this song on the radio and i started to cry. It just touched me so much the words and everything. My good friend just recently died of cancer and left behind two little kids a little girl and boy, it will be their first christmas without her and listening to this song reminded me of how much they would want her home for christmas and how every child who has lost a parent or friend or is in the war wishes and prays for them to come home safe. My uncle has been in jail for a year he was like a father to me and I havent been able to see my cusin and aunt in five years....well yesterday they surprised us and are here for a week for christmas. It's the best christmas present ever, God brought them to us for christmas even though my uncle can't be with us they are still here and I feel so blessed for that. This song is so touching and amazing there are no words to describe the feeling i get each time i listento this song. God Bless.

Thank You
by Judy K.
I have a 21 month old boy and a 3 month old little girl. My husband is in the Army currently in Iraq for his 3rd tour and this is my 2nd deployment with him. This is my 2nd Christmas with out him and our son is lost without his daddy. I'm currently staying at my parents house because the 2 littles one are a bit much for me and I get a break every now and again. I cried my eyes out listening to this over and over again till I couldn't cry any more. This song has touched many people that I know and they say it makes them think of us. I'm so glad to see so many people reaction out and supporting out troops. My son & daughter asked Santa for " All we want is our daddy home safely for next Christmas." He said what an unselfish gift he would try his best. So thank you so much for this son its means everything to me and more. You've touched many people with this song.

Very Emotional
by cherry

Very Personal To Me

My youngest son is LCPL in the Marine Corp. We are so blessed to have Caleb home with us this Christmas. He is scheduled for his second deployment to Iraq October of 2008. We are making the most of this holiday. He may not be with us physically next Christmas, but he will be in our hearts where ever he is. I am so thankful Caleb celebrated his 21st birthday on December 22. There are so many not able to be with their loved ones for the holidays. I pray that our troops will be safe. I pray that God will comfort them and give them strength. I pray that he will sooth their loneliness. Please give someone you love a hugh every day. Do not take for granted every oportunity we have to share our love and respect for others. God bless our troops and their families.

What a salute!
by Wanda
I have a son-in-law who was lucky enough to be home for Christmas this year! I think ir'a wonderful that we always keep our sons, daughters, in-laws, grandchildren, whatever the case, in our prayers. We moved to Beaufort, SC the home of Parris Island 13 years ago and I will say I learned to really stand behind our troops and their families who are left behind. I really salute the moms and dads who stay behind to take care of their families while the spouse is gone fighting for OUR freedom. Thanks for writing, thanks for singing and thanks for the donations to such a worthy cause. God sent his son for our freedom two thousand years ago so he understands our pain when we have to send our children. God Bless America and ALL troops in country or overseas!

AWSOME SONG!!!!!!!
by samie
this song is the best song ever and its so sad

Christmas song of the year!
by ~Baybbrowneyes
Hi, i just heard this song yesterday on WOKO 98.9 the big station....here in Burlington vermont and before they played it they called it THE CHRISTMAS SONG OF THE YEAR!.Well done! Your Dad must be proud of you!....I Love the song it is very touching and everyone that heres this song feels the same way you do! BRING HIM HOME!....i hope you get your wish for Christmas. I wish you, your mom and Dad and your family a very merry Christmas from our home in Vermont to yours!

very touching
by Barbee Carpenter
Everything about this was wonderful. Yes, lets bring them home - safe and sound. Our men and women are doing a great job for all of us, lets continue to pray for them. The song is beautiful and touched me in so many ways.

Very touching song
by Daniel
It is so hard not to get choked up when hearing this song. My father served 23 years in the U.S. Navy and I remember many Christmas's without him. While listening to this song it brings back many memories from my childhood and also thoughts of all the children whose parents have to spend Christmas without them this year. Also my thoughts go to the families of the children who have lost their parent to wartime situations. Thank you for giving us this song. God bless everybody and their families during this Christmas season.

From the Heart
by by Sharon
To often we caught up with the Hub Bub of the season and sometimes sadness from families's differnces that we forget the meaning and the simpicity of Christmas. Everyone should hear this song to remind us our blessings and being able to be together.

Really hits home, sweet song,
by angela
My cousin, and all four of my cousin-in-laws where shiped out about 3mths ago or so now. And god knows we would love to see them for christmas and so would there kids, but like she said thier country needs them. But I havent hear a more beautiful song in a very long time. May God Bless you and yours.

WOW !! MADE A GROWN MAN CRY !!!
by BYRON LAWRENCE
WHAT AN INCREDIBLE SONG! THE PICTURES GO SO GOOD WITH IT. WE DO NOT KNOW HOW GOOD WE HAVE IT IN THIS COUNTRY TO HAVE THESE MILITARY FOLKS FIGHTING FOR OUR FREEDOM SO THAT WE CAN CELEBRATE GOD'S BIRTH WITH OUR FAMILIES HERE AT HOME. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR WRITING THIS SONG, I HEARD IT TONIGHT IN THE CAR ON 96.3 KSCS DALLAS, TEXAS IT BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES. THEN I GOT HOME AND LOOKED IT UP AND SAW THE VIDEO, THAT MADE ME CRY LIKE A BABY BECAUSE ALL I COULD THINK ABOUT IS THAT I WILL BE WITH MY KIDS ON CHRISTMAS MORNING, AND THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF KIDS THAT WILL BE WITHOUT A MOM OR A DAD BECAUSE OF THIER BRAVE SERVICE TO THIS COUNTRY. WHAT MAKES ME CRY EVEN HARDER IS THE KIDS THAT WILL ACTUALLY NEVER HAVE CHRISTMAS WITH THEIR MOM OR DAD AGAIN BECAUSE THEY GAVE THEIR LIFE FOR OUR COUNTRY'S FREEDOM. GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS AND THE FAMILIES OF OUR TROOPS. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND MAY GOD BE WITH YOU. THIS SONG WILL MAKE ME KEEP YOU IN MY DAILY PRAYERS MORE THAN EVER BEFORE. GARLAND,TEXAS

Amazing
by Kaitlyn
I love how you say it's not about how beautiful the singer is, or how much money is behind them. I love how you protected this little girl. Such a great job you guys are doing...And my favorite Christmas song this year! :o)

Bring him home Santa
by Stacey D. St. Joe, MO
This is a great song. I have 4 girls and 1 boy and they all love it!! It really touched my families heart. This is the second time that their dad has went over seas. But this time has been the toughest. He will be gone during Christmas and New Year's and it has been hard for all of us. This song has been a wonderful gift for my children. They absolutely love it. My two year old daughter sings it all the time and she loves to watch the video and see all her dad's friends. Thank you to all the men and women over seas fighting for our country and god bless their families and keep all of them safe.

1st Cavalry Wife
by Sarah
I just cried my eyes out listening to this for the first time. We have 4 children ages 8,7,4, and 2. My husband is spending another Christmas in Iraq. He should have been home in October but due to the extensions and a special duty to ride the cargo ship home he won't be home until March. My heart aches. My children are asking if the commander will let him be home for Christmas. I have to keep my own emotions in check and explain it to them once again. A mothers worst pain is seeing her children hurt. This Christmas my soldier is alone in a tent in Baghdad. There are 5 people holding their breath until we see SGT J. Barton again....Godspeed baby.

Made a Marine Cry!
by Chris
All I can say is wow. I heard this song on the radio on my way into work the other morning. I was driving down the road and I just started to weep. I am a former marine who served overseas in Iraq and Kuwait. This song is a wonderful remider to everyone to be thankfull that some of us are given the opportunity to be home for the holidays and also makes us think and rememember those who are currently overseas.

I love this song!! It is so meaningful! So many families will have a loved one in the war this Christmas and this song is just perfect!! I cried the first time I heard it and it was a good kind of crying! I want to wish all the families with someone over in the war a Merry Christmas and stay strong this holiday season! Thank you for writing this song! I love it very much! It is my new favorite Christmas song!

Our Future
by Nikki
This song is very good. My husband will be home this year for Christmas but he will leave for Iraq on January 8th of 2008 and he will be gone for 1 year. So next year he will miss out on our baby's first birthday, our second son turning 4 and Christmas. And that will be so hard for me. I really enjoyed the song and even brought tears to my husbands eyes as well.

Very Touching Song
by Lori
This song really touched me when i first heard it on the radio; this little girl has a very beautiful voice, talented and can really grab ahold of everyone who hears this song.No one should be alone on christmas; this song reminded me of my dad who pasted away two years.I love this song. We're all thinking of you,out there fighting for us!!!

i Luv this song!
by Hanna

Amazing song
by Eugene
I heard the song on WMXL 94.5 FM in Lexington Kentucky. I really enjoyed the song, but when the part came on about the dress blues, I couldn't help but think about the current situation with all of our troops deployed around the world. Gol Bless our troops and bring all of them home safely

I play this every day
by Diane from Houston
I play this song everyday, knowing our soldiers are protecting the USA. The families have made the ultimate sacrifice to protect America. I too had a husband who was away early in our marriage 40 years ago. He did his duty in Viet Nam and I am very proud of all our service men. You will be in my thoughts and prayers this holiday season. God bless you all!!

NO words can describe this song

WOW
by Chelsea
So my boyfriend just left for Korea at the beginning of the week so he won't be here for Christmas but when i heard this song I totally lost it. It's absolutely amazing.

Bringing him home
by Anna
The first time I heard this song, I cried my eyes out. At that very moment I was going to pick my big brother up from the airport, for Christmas. My big brother is in the Navy and I miss him very much when he’s not here. It’s funny that you made this song; I’ve thought so many times that I would give up everything for Christmas if I could only see him. I got this song and I plan to listen through the year it will remind me that he will be coming home and to help me look forward to that moment when I can give him a great big hug (even though it embarrasses him) and bring him home with us. Thank you very, very much.

Thank you
by Jennifer C.
My 7 year old daughter actually heard this song a few nights ago while listening to the radio before she fell asleep in bed. She came down stairs crying and when I asked her why, she said she heard a song that reminded her of daddy. Today it came on the radio again while we were in the car and all three of us were crying ~ her, myself and her 11 year old brother. You see, my husband (their dad) is currently deployed with the Navy. He won't be home for Christmas this year, for the second time in 3 years. Your song hits home for us and many others like us I'm sure. I want to thank you personally for thinking of our families and our loved ones who serve 365 days a year, even when it means being alone during the holidays. It's not a stretch at all for our children to ask for daddy (or mommy in some cases)instead of gifts. Thank you again for this very meaningful and real song. May God keep them safe until they come home!

Thank you
by Alaina
I'm a new airman's wife and not only am I spending my first Christmas with my husband, without him, I am also pregnant. I started crying the first time I heard this song and I've listened to it 3 times since. The part about finding him standing by the tree hits home every time. Thank you for writing something that reminds people that not everyone can enjoy the holidays with the comfort of their family surrounding them. God bless all the troops. May they all come home safe.

so sweet and angelic
by Pamela J
I teat up every time I hear this song. My husband didnt think he would..well,I proved him wrong and now he cries like a baby when hearing this song sung so sweet and innocently. Our son was in Iraq this time last year and also has a 3 yr old daughter as well and a newborn. They are very grateful to have their daddy home. God bless you. What a wonderful way to express our love for our country and the men and women who wont be home but can dream with this song....

amazing!
by Brandon.
I first herd that song when I was sitting in traffic on I-5. I almost cryed. Thats an amazing song and its hard to beleave that the person singin is only 6years old.

Bringhim home Santa
by Laverne Gurley
I purchased this song via my credit card because my radio station was playing it and I thought it was great. However it did not allow me to download the song and it did not tell me where I could download the song or if I was going to get a copy of this song in the mail. I hope I am going to get my copy of this song from somewhere. After all I purchased it through Godstrong(St Jude). My e-mail address is cody6sam@yahoo.com. Someone please let me know how to download my song so I can listen to it. Thanks,

Husband in the Army
by Stacey
My husband is deployed again for the second time.

my story
by Jenna Hord
This song really means alot to me. My dad is in the Navy and he is in Iraq for the holidays. He has been there for about six months and it already feels like it has been years. I really like this song. Some people just think that they could stand having their parents gone for a year or two cause parrents get on their nerves sometimes. But then when it really happens they feel to wrong, and they were. It is so hard. They barely get to call you and letters take a very long time to get there and back. I jus want to say God bless those over there and be safe. And just remember that you guys and girls have family and friends waiting for you at home. And you are in peoples prayers everyday. And Dad i love you so much! Come home soon and safe! I love and miss you so much. You have no clue. And actually i just got a Christmas card from you today in the mail. So thank you so much. I love and miss you! Love your Boo, Jenna

Bring Him Home Santa
by Athena
I heard this song on the radio and started crying. My husband is currently serving in Iraq and due home anyday now. We are hoping he will be here before Christmas in a few days. I took my three children to see Santa on the base one night. When Santa asked my daughter what she wanted for Christmas all she told him was "I want you to bring my daddy home he's in iraq catching bad guys" I think even Santa got tears in his eyes from that request. Athena Reed Wife of SSG Bryan Reed 2-12 Infantry Colorado

Great Job
by Melissa
I think this is a heart warming song. I think that president bush needs to listen to this. My thoughts and prayers go out to all military personnel and there families. Thank you so much for protecting our country

This song
by Mariah
This is a touching song for lots of people it tears to my eyes when I hurd it on the radeo on the way to forth grade elamentry school it was just a song that ment nothing to me but then I put my slef in the shoes a kid in this then it made me think of my friends with family surving in the army over Christmas and people who have had people die in the army. If this was you as a kid how would you feel? THANK YOU ARMY FOR GIVING US FREEDOM AND LOTS OF RIGHTS! MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL IN THE ARMY AND YOU!

AWSOME SONG!!!!!!!
by Heidi
Wow! That is a nice song. The first time I heard it I started to cry. Now I want to hear the song everyday.

bring him home
by ethan
this is so sad but yet sweet i cried

I love it.
by Taylor.
I love this song so much, it made me cry throughout the whole thing. Although I haven't experienced a family member in the military like this, I still feel the pain because many of my friends have experienced it. The song is so cute, and it will touch anybody's heart who hears it. God bless the writers of this song, and God bless our troops. Bring them home!

bring him home santa
by Deanna Johnson
It is really hard to listen to this song and not cry i really like this song a lot it would be nice to have their fathers home. I would like this song to play all the time on the radio, and to have people listen to and really relize that some of these people/kids dont even know their parents at all, and it is sad that some dads/moms die even before the kids are born. i hope that people understand that young kids like this girl singing the song are hoping that their dads come home for Christmas well i hope that their prayers come true. I hope that other people pray for them to.

beautiful song!!
by Trisha Powell
The first time i heard this song i was dropping my bestfriend off at her ship!! but thats not what touched me... She had just gotten back that day from deployment, and this song just made me realize how much your family misses and needs you, as i should know because im in the military as well and i know thats probably wht my mother is saying! well this is a very beautiful song and i believe that it will go far!! have a merry christmas... and thank you for the support!

Amazing/Powerful song
by Ness Fragmin
I sat here crying as I listened to this beautiful song. My heart goes out to each and every child and family of those who are serving so far away this holiday season. May God watch over your loved ones until Santa can bring them home to you. Merry Christmas and God bless. May this New year bring the men and women who are serving our country back home to those who love them.

Christmas
by Heather
i think it is so sweet...my brother is in iraq for christmas and his children wife mom dad and i all will miss him for the holidays...i hope everyone gets to at least talk to their loved one who is away for christmas! we all thank them for fighting for us.

This song is very sweet
by Kristin Jokimaki
I have a friend that is irqa right now and when i hear the song i want to cry because it reming of him and i also have family that is over there. So If i could have one wish it would be them home for christmas and just them i mean all them.

Proud Paratrooper
by Matt
Wow, I love this song. I cried for the first time in almost six years when I heard it the first time. I am a 20 year old Paratrooper in the 82d Airborne Division who was lucky enough to be able to come home for Christmas, which really made my family. I love my country and would do anything for it, but I am very family oriented which is why your song touched me so much. Thank you.

Great Song
by Kristi
This song brought tears to my eyes. I hope all the families with those serving our country have a wonderful Christmas. Please keep all of our troops safe so they can return home to those who love them!!!

The Best Christmas Song Ever
by Heather
This song moved me very much!Although my dad isn't in the service he works away from home alot. My siblings and I miss him very much. This song brought tears to all of our eyes, our daddy came home for Christmas on Dec 21st, however many daddys can't. We are very thankful to all the service men and women protecting us and our country! Thank-You, Merry Christmas, and God Bless.

beautiful song
by c.singletary

So sad...
by Sarah
I heard this song last night on my way home from doing so last minute christmas shopping. I had the radio on the local county station and had the radio turned down because I had just went through the drive through, when I turned it up, I was intrigued so I listened. Before I had made it the mile to my home I was crying. It pains me to think about how many children are feeling this same sentiment right now. Wishing for their father or mother, who is bravely serving our country overseas. I would like to commend not only the soldiers, but their families. This is one of the most trying times for a person to be separated from their loved ones. I cannot imagine what it would be like to be away from my family at Christmas, I hope that everyone who is away from their family gets them home safe from the far away lands in which they currently reside.

Thank you!
by Kelly W. OH
This song made me cry. I don't know any service men or women over there right now but it makes me sad that they are missing so much of their families and children's lives and the holidays especially Christmas. I always think about our men and women overseas and this just brings it back to my heart. The video was really awesome and made me cry even more to see the footage of some of the soldiers and the families that are missing them.

Thank you!
by liz
My dad spent years in the Military and my brother-in-law was deployed last Christmas. I want to say thank you to all the troops and their families. This is truely, The Land of the Free, BECAUSE of the Brave. The troops and their families are the bravest people in the world. When I first heard this song the radio annoucer was choking up, it made me think of my dad and brothers-in-law and the sacrifices that they have had to make over the years so that my family and I could be free and safe. I love you all and Merry Christmas to everyone of you.

this is a great song!
by Nicole
Oh my goddness! This song is so good. KEEP WORKING! zYou are amazing who ever sings it. iI would love to meet you!!

From one artist to another
by Raymond Adams
I am an artist (carving and other woodarts) who lives in Lebanon, TN. I heard about this song on a web-based club for scroll saw artists and after visiting this site I had to let you know how much this song touched me. You see, I don't celebrate christmas. I am a messianic jew. However, the sentiments and shear beauty of this song speak for themselves whether they are speaking about christmas, a birthday, thankgiving or just a lonely afternoon when a family is missing thier loved ones. I am an avid supporter of our troops overseas and have been from day one. Each report of a death or injury drives me to prayer for the soldiers and thier families and now I see another avenue for support opened up with this masterful song. Keep up the good work and may God bless you and make His countenance to shine upon you as this song touches lives and becomes a classic played for years to come.

so sad
by jada rivera
I cried so hard to this song because it makes you think of hard times and you just look at the little girl and want to pray for her.

very touching...
by bea
i was just browsing for the word home, them curiousity came into me when i saw the tag 'bring him home santa'. and when i watched this video, hearing the angelic voice singing this song, can't stop my tears falling... and remembering my boyfriend who's in marines for service... wishin' we could spend our first christmas together...i just miss him so much...

Great Song
by Shelli
As a military member, wife of a Navy man, sister of a Marine and cousin to Army boys, this song touched my heart. I have been away from my family for 5 years and next Christmas my now 2 year old may not see her father for the holiday. It made me start crying because it reminds me of how she runs to meet him now when he gets home from work and how next year she won't be doing that. I can only pray that every child who has a mother or father overseas gets to see that parent again. It is a beautiful song and the little girl does it perfectly. Such innocence and hope.

From Across The Sea
by SPC Morris
I wanna thank you for this song. Im deployed to Iraq right now and I just heard this beautiful song. I will admitt I cried when I first heard it. I recently got engaged and starting a family of my own. So I just wanna tell all the troops out there with a family to stay strong and be safe so they can get back to their loved ones.

Song
by Guy from Michigan
Just briefly... I would love to see 1,000,000 people send the "you tube" slide show with this song to the President of this Country. Just "maybe" he will get the hint!!!

My Brother
by Abbey
My brother is in Iraq and the first time I heard this song I lost it. I know its different because he is my brother but it still upsets me a lot. I think about him everyday and I am glad people pray and think about what all of our soldiers are doing over there. I really wish santa could bring them all home and we would just be at peace but I know that could never happen. So thanks for everything everybody does for our soldiers over there and the ones here. God Bless America and Support Our Troops!

Great! Great! Great!
by Laurie, Proud Navy wife
I heard this song for the first time the morning that Ichabod Caine from KMPS played it on his morning show. I loved it instantly. I have 3 little girls that love it now too. I have heard it so many times on the radio now and still haven't gotten through without crying once(which doesn't make driving any easier). My husband has been in the Navy for just over 9 years now and this is his first Christmas away. I thank you so much for putting into words the feelings that military children know all too well. My girls love it so much and my 3 year old sings along and says that is makes her think of her daddy. This song means so much to so many. I can't wait to be able to have my husband listen to this. I know he will love it too.

THIS WILL COVER THE LORD'S PEOPLE
by WILLIAM J RUDISILL
MAY I SAY THAT I HOPE ALL THE SERVICEMEN AND WOMEN AROUND THE WORLD SERVING TO PROTECT OUR FREEDOM, MAY THE LORD BLESS THEM AND KEEP THEM SAFE, AND MAY ALL RETURN HOME TO THEIR LOVED ONES SOON, AND EVERY ONE HAVE THE BEST HOLIDAY, WHERE EVER YOU ARE. GOD BLESS EVERYONE AND AMERICA

Wow
by CN
This was the most touching thing I have heard in a long time. God Bless our troops and their families.

WOW
by Nicole Martindill
Where do I begin...well as being an Army wife myself and having a child during that time, that was a hard song to listen to. My husband has been out now for a few years and luckily he didn't have to deploy. I have many friends that are in and have served and are serving. We quickly forget how the children feel and what they want the most is their parents on christmas morning. So this morning as I sat there listening to this song I couldn't help but cry. It is to close to home for me and many friends. To all those little ones whoes parents that can't be home with them on Christmas, I just want to thank you for being so brave. Your parents are doing a wonderful job. To the song writers and producers, Thank you for writing this song and not forgetting what these precious little children are missing and recognizing these men and women who are fighting for our country. Wow is all I can say! Merry Christmas!

Still Crying
by T
I heard this song the first time on my way home from work and had to pull over because I couldnt stop crying. My best friend is over seas right now and his family, friends and me miss him very much. I doesn't matter how many times I hear this song, I still cry every time. I just want to take this opportunity and thank each and every one of the soldiers for our country and their families who deal with it all and support them 100%! COME HOME SAFE GUYS!! THANK YOU!! GOD BLESS

WOWOWOWOW!!
by Heather Fickert
My husband is in the US Army...our daughter was born Christmas day 2006, and luckily he was able to be home for her birth, we were also so fortunate for him to be home for her first birthday this year..but next year we wont be so lucky. He deploys this year in April for 18 months....this song hits so so so SOOOOO close to home. I cried like a BABY the first time i heard it and continue to cry everytime i hear it!! THIS SONG IS AMAZING!! Thankyou thankyou thankyou for everyone who serves for our countrys freedom!!! WE LOVE YOU ALL!!!

So Cute!!
by Peaches
This is such a cute song!!! it almost made me cry!!

i can so relate!
by Breann Arant
My husband is in the military and he has missed 2 christmases in a row. our son was born december 18th last year and he missed that also. we also have a 3 year old who had said she wanted daddy for christmas. my one wish would be to have him home for the holidays. this song says it all and the fact that it is in the innocent voice of a child makes it that much harder to listen to. it is absoluetly beautiful and who ever came up with this idea should send it to our congress men and women. maybe then they can understand what military spouses really go through when we have to say good bye.

WOW
by TL Rumsey
I have no one in my family that is in the military, but this song, heard all the way in Albeta Canada. Well it is one of the most popular Christmas songs around here, and you can tell when it is playing on the radio, because in the car right next to you, the people are crying along with you. How can you not just stop and think of everything around you. You just stop worrying about the buying gifts, running around, you just think of everyone who means something to you.

Our Thanks!
by The Scott Family
We would like to thank all our troops who are serving our country overseas not only this time of year, but all year long. Also, thank you to the families for your sacrifice's. All of ours are stateside at this time, but we are thinking of & praying for those who can't be. This song is very hard to listen to, but has one of the best messages I've heard in a long time everyone need to hear it. Thank you for releasing it & playing it. Blessings to you all and Merry Christmas.

Not Enough Words
by The Strickland's
There aren't enough words to express the feelings in my heart. My 24 yr. old daughter called me on her way home from work crying after she heard this song. After I heard the song for the first time...my heart was overwhelmed with love for the families of all military members. How can we ever thank you all for raising your children with the courage to go and protect our lives? They are all amazing human ANGELS. My family and I want to thank each and everyone of you for risking you lives to make ours better. And to the family members left behind, our thoughts and prayers are with you all this holday and the days to come. We are PROUD of everyone of you. God, bring them home safe.

Heart Wrenching
by Lori Schmidt
Wow! What a song GOD BLESS this little girl and her family and her Daddy. Keep praying honey and GOD will bring your daddy home soon. If you listen to this song and don't cry then something is wrong. This song hits you like a ton of bricks. Who is this little girl and who wrote this song? It's too bad that these families have to go through this especially the children when they don't understand. We as adults think that we know how they feel but we don't! To all the military families just keep the Faith and keep praying! GOD BLESS YOU ALL!

Tears
by Grace
What a GREAT song. I love it and it is so true. What a wonderful voice she has. I sure hope her Daddy can hear the love in her voice... Grace

Never Forget
by Angela
As me and my co-workers sat today and listen and watched this video for the first time, we realized that we hadn't thought about our soldiers this Christmas. As the tears began to flow down our cheeks, we all thanked God for all the men and woman who fight for us.. May GOD be with eash and every family this Holiday season.

Thank you!
by Darylie Mo
This song is ahh-mazing.Its so cute that this little girl sings it. ILOVE IT. Its so sad. Im glad her dad is back. Its the perfect song, because its christmas and her dad and other troops are honoring our country over in IRAQ. I almost cryed the first time i heard this song. My dad fought in Iraq. I know what she most be going through, and i feel so bad for her. I hated when My dad was over there. Im just lucky that my dad gott hurt(not to badly,butt enough where they let him out on disiblity.)while being over there. Or my dad would still be over there. Im so sorry that your dad like many other moms & dads are fightin or have fought. Merry christmas and a happy new year. I hope your dad will be home for good soon.

AWESOME SONG
by Mary S
I heard this on my way to work one morning and then went out on 99.9 KISS Country to find the video. My 8 year old and I listened and watched the video together and both of us were crying. If you don't cry when you watch this video and hear this song, somethings wrong and you are very cold hearted. We should all hold up not only our soliders in our prayers but also the families of those serving. It has got to be hard on the adults as well as the children to not be together during Christmas. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you that are serving and those at home waiting for them to come home. Merry CHRISTmas & Happy New Year! Keep playing this song!!!!

Its so sad
by Logan
I love this song. The first time i heard it i almost cried.

Wow. is all I can say..
by Pamela Cumming
I heard this song for the first time on KSON, San Diego as I was driving to work. Normally, when listening to "Cliff n Company" I would have streams of tears from laughter at Tanner and his jokes, but this time it was different. Tears of sadness, as I remember last year at this time when my son was in Baghdad away from his 2 yr daughter and wife. This song has touched millions as it has me. The little girl who sang this will be known for her purity and love for her daddy. Thank you for sharing this song. It will be around for quite awhile. Merry Christmas

THANK YOU
by Veronica
Thank you for making this song. it hits home. I was in the army and i know how it is to be away from your lover ones at christmas. I been there. It is so wonderful for you all to play this song. Wish and pray to god all the soldiers the best of luck and I'm praying for them. I wish for the kids to have their dad to be home with them. I am a single mom and my kids had to stay with my mom. God watch over our soldiers. Merry Christmas to all of you. The song does make you cry and think. Thank you The Wolf for playing it. It's a wonderful song.

awsome
by clayton/arkansas
the song is so great, the little done a great job for her age. I know the soldiers fighting over seas will really love the song, knowing they can't be with their loved ones this christmas. Who ever wrote the song great job.

by tiffany
i dont have any family memebers in the war. but i lost it when i heard this song for the first time. i was thinking what i would do if my dad was in the war and he wasnt home for christmas. my love is with the family members of the soldiers in iraq.

What an amazing song
by Nancy
I heard this song yesterday on the radio as I was driving to work. It broke my heart. My son is in Iraq. My grandson is 6 years old and just wants his daddy to come home. Thank you for this song and God Bless Our Troops.

This is so wonderful...
by Cassidy
My dad is retired military but he'd left many times for TDY while he was active duty, the worst time was to the Middle East during my senior year in high school. Although we were blessed not to have him gone at Christmas time, I often felt this way.. if only he could come home. I love our troops and am so thankful for them and the service they provide us. Thank you for creating such a beautiful song that shares how those of us with military friends and family members feel when they are away from us....

this song
by RaChEl21
oh my! this song is so cute. i can really relate to it bcause i have a brother in the marines. i almost cried because he will be away for christmas not this year, but next. =[[[

this is really cute but sad
by Ashley Brock
i would be sad too if my husband was overseas for the holidays but thank god hes home this year and hopefully next year too. i love my husband soo much and im soo proud of him and support him 100%, he is my hero, the love of my life, and the father to my child and i thank god everyday that i found him bc through him i have become a better person and he has too. i love him soo much and this song makes me love him even more just because its a child wanting her daddy back from overseas for christmas and i know our kids will be the same way when he goes over but like her mommy ill explain to them why he has to be gone and that he will be back and that thier daddy loves them very very much. itll be hard not having him for the holidays when he does go but i do cherish every moment i have with him now and itll never change the way i feel for charles because he is my world. im just glad that we get to spend our first christmas together im happy for that and then if he can stay next christmas for his babys first christmas that would be great but if he cant then thatll be ok too. this is a really great song though above all things.

Jennifer/ Indiana Thank you
by Jennifer Stanley/ Indiana
Thank you so much for this song. You have no idea how much it means to all of us who have family members fighting and not able to be home with us. My husband is now currently over in Iraq this is his second tour. And his second christmas away from home. We just celebrated our one year anniversary apart. Which was extremely hard of course. And we have a beautiful baby boy who is three months old. He was here for the birth thank God. But, he was recently in an accident where his hum-v ran over an IED. Which terrified us both. But it's songs like this that keep our faith strong. You are truly a God send. GOD BLESS AND MERRY CHRISTMAS.

Thank you!
by Military MOM
This song was us last Christmas. My son was in Ramadii and he had a six month old daughter that he hadn't seen since she was three weeks old. We were so proud of him and still are of the many men and women that are serving our country. This year I am proud and sad to say that my youngest son is not home for Christmas because he is in Parris Island training to be a Marine. Only sad because he won't be with us at Christmas. My son actually cried when he heard this song for the first time. He has only been home a few months and this are still pretty raw for him but he loved the song and could truly understand the sentiment. Again, THANK YOU to all of you wonderful men and women, mothers and fathers that have made the sacrfice to protect the rest of us. You are my Heros.

Amazing Job
by Chris
I am very blessed because my husband and I are going to have our first child and he will be able to be home with me for everything. However he has a nephew over there now and his wife is expecting this spring and I hope that he can be there for that experience. I really hope that the wish that this little girl and other the other children have will come true!! Merry Christmas to all!!

Wonderful Song!!!
by Laurie
I had family over there and he came home this year, so we will have him home for your Christmas this year! My prayers are with everyone and hope everyones loved ones come home safe, healthy and soon. God Bless America and our troops!!!

The song is beautiful!
by Troop Supporter
I heard this song on Froggy 98.1 and I fall in love with it. It even brought tears to my eyes. I have friends over there and I even had family over there. But my family is home but not my friends. And we need to support our troops all the time not just when we feel like it. And I hope they all return safe to their families and friends. God Bless You All.

I Love This!!
by Mandi
I tear up every time I hear this song. It really hits home my husbands ship just pulled back in from 6 mos at sea. He has duty Christmas day and last christmas we weren't able to be together so this year we thank god he's here in the states but we won't be able to spend the day as a family with our 2 year old. I love this song!! GO NAVY!!!!

by Lee Poole
First I just wanted to say thank you for not forgetting us, I was a soldier and was deployed two years ago I have two wonderful boys and a great wife. Hearing your song brought tears to my eyes because when I was gone my wife said my sons did what your song says they wrote santa and in both there letters I was what they wanted santa to bring them not no toy or new game just me there dad. Thank you SGT Poole Lee

such a good song!
by nicole
that just makes me want to cry.

Blessed Voice and Touched Hearts
by Jenny
Thank you for sharing this song and giving us the opportunity to hear such a wonderful voice.is there a cd available? i think it should. Its nice to actually make this song more realistic hearing it from a childs voice. Thats why it touched my heart and many of my family members who also serve in the military and enjoyed a heart felt voice. So from all of us that are serving we would like to thank the little girl who took the time to open up a song like this and sing it to the world. We are so greatful. And hope that there are more like this in the future. Thank you again and Merry Christmas.

Incredible song!
by Denise
A co-worker sent me the link to this song knowing that my son is a U.S. Marine Recruit in bootcamp, training to serve and protect our country. Of course my tears flowed listening to this song - and the pictures were perfect. I am so thankful for our troops and I pray that each one of them will be home safely very soon. My prayers go out to our troops, family and loved ones of our troops, for the leaders of this country and for the innocent people of Irag and Afghanistan. God's blessings to you all.

Best Christmas Song ever
by Janet
Thank you so much for writting such a heartfelt song. This song can touch everyone, first the milatary families who are missing their love ones this Christmas. Then it touches someone like me who lost their dad to divorce and would have given anything to see her dad on Christmas and knowing that he was spending Christmas alone and then the song just reminds us that Christmas is not about presents but about the more important things like God, family and friends. My dad and I have had our song for years but I called him last night to tell him I have a new song for us and I played it for him and just reminded him how much I love him.

This song is beautiful
by Barbara
I just heard this song today for the first time and it brought tears to my eyes. I was with my husband at the time. He has been deployed to Iraq twice so this song has special meaning for me. If I had heard it at Christmas time 2005, when he was in Iraq for his 2nd tour, I would have bawled. It is so difficult for the families to have their loved ones in harm's way and it is even more difficult during the holidays. I continue to pray for all our service men and women, that God will bring his angels down to surround them every day and keep them safe. God bless our country and our wonderful soldiers.

thank you
by mrs. b, proud marine wife
my husband has been in iraq (his second tour) for the past year. he is slated to come home soon, but celebrating christmas without him is tougher than i ever imagined. we don't have any children yet, but as soon as i heard this song on the radio, i broke down crying. i can't listen to it without crying, especially when she sings about the dress blues, because my husband is a marine. this song is lodged deep in my heart. thank you for getting it out there, hopefully it will touch others hearts as well. my prayers are with all the families who have loved ones in harms way this christmas. may god protect them and bring them home soon.

i cried
by rebecca
wow that song was really good........ i loved it. it made me cry that was the cutest thing i have ever heard and the video made it even more better. i thank you for putting that on the radio for every one to hear because, i am sure it made soem sort of a difference to every one who heard that song. it probably touched amny people who have a parent fighting in the war. i bet there is a lot more kids out there who they are askign for some one to come home from the war to santa. wich may be a disappointment to soem childern but i quess the best thing is that they know that there parent in the war is fighting for our country's freedoom. i do think though that it is very wrong that the troops can't come home for at least chritmas but i guess it's for the best. so thank you for having that song be played for every one to here what they want home for christmas. thanks one in a million

bring him home song
by Terry Keen from Bogalusa, LA
It really made me cry when I listened to this my son is in Iraq this Christmas and away from us and his wife and 21 month old son so it is going to be a very very hard Christmas for us and more so for him. I just wish that they could ALL come home for good.

touching
by Jerry Cromwell Sunbright Tennessee
this song hits real close to home for a lot of people i have had a brother ,a cousin and now one of my best freinds over there and my best freind got hurt in the road side bombing last week. My cousin got blown up three different times and his kids where just torn up when daddy could not come home for christmas but by the grace of god all three are doing good. this little girl just touched my heart and made me tear up i hope pray very soon that all kids and familys will not have to go throught this any more merry christmas and god bless every one and very much so our men and women who serve our US!!!!!!!!!!!!!

bring him home
by Connie
So heart felt. The first time I heard the song I was driving home and was overwhelmed by emotion. My youngest son just returned from Iraq, and I know how all the families with Military sons and daughters feel. Today on the way to work,while the song was on, the local military members were wishing their families happy holidays, and that they would be home soon. Almost had to pull over and stop the car. Please, bring them home.

Awesome!
by Stacey Williamson
This song really touched my heart. I am a military wife and my husband just returned from a fifteen month tour in Iraq. He was injured during an explosion and was flown back to the United States for treatment. We have a two year son that my husband just started getting to know. We found out he was leaving when I was still pregnant. God Bless our troops and all military families going through it. Just remember that God is with us and the power of prayer is what keeps a family strong.

Bring Him Home Santa
by Carey Carlson
Rory and Musical friends, My, this "little" song of yours is impacting huge. Our Northern Michigan listeners are ringing the phones off the hook to hear it. I care what songwriters look like, because I care about the lyrics and I like to know who they come from. Your Song Trust sounds like a juicy creative bunch of fine folk. That you wrote The Chain Of Love does not suprise me, it is the song that leaves you better than it found you. Thank You for the words. Merry Christmas and enjoy this ride. Carey Carlson Music Dir./Midays WTCM Traverse City, MI. careyc@wtcmradio.com

just loved!!!
by Ivette
when i first saw this video it touched my heart so much i couldnt stop cring. my 4yr old son sat with u and asked to watch it as he sat there with me watching it he started cring when the song was done he asked if santa could bring his dad home for chirstmas too. this deployment has been very hard on him. but i must say this video maybe very sad but also its the most touching beauitful video i have ever seen.

song
by Adam Worley
Awesome song this made me tear up. My cousin is about to head over there my brother in law served a year in Iraq my heart goes out to all the troops. God Bless and Merry Christmas

FROM A CAREER SAILOR
by David
This song is a heart warming, touching song. I've been in the Military for almost 20 years and I could see my own children singing this song. I've missed A LOT of important things over the years, but I haven't missed a Christmas yet. Let me say "Thank You" for this song for all of those that wear a uniform. I would like to wish all of those that are wearing the uniform and their families a SAFE, Happy and Healthy Holiday Season and New Year to follow.

Crying already about next year!!!
by Melissa
I just heard this song and I am crying like crazy!! You see, my husband is in the military and we have already been told that he will be gone overseas next Christmas. We have handled many trips before, but next year will be the first time that he will be away, not only from me, but away from our little girl. She's 19 months now and is a little fireball full of personality. I can just picture her singing this song next year, missing her daddy, and it absolutely breaks my heart. He's been away on short trips from us before, but next year we know he will be gone no less than 6 months. I know I am not the only wife/mother going through the same roller coaster emotions and my prayers go out to all of them. Please support our troops and their families!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

Thank you from an army wife
by Debbi Kitson Proud Army Wife
My daughter is 9 and this is her second time having daddy over there for Xmas. When I heard this song I cried. I rememeber her asking me the first time he was over there she was only 5, if I thought santa would only bring her one gift if she only asked for one. Not realizing what she wanted I asked her what it was she said the only thing she wanted for Xmas was her daddy to be here with us. I bawled. This song reminded me of that. The kids are as affected by the deployments if not more affected than we are as adults. And this song says it all... Thank you for making this song for all to hear to hope they realize that it is not only the adults that are affected by deployments but the children are affected too. Once again thank you for this wonderful song....

Words can't express...
by Sherry boland
I heard this song yesterday on my way shopping, I have no family nor friends over seas,but it touched my heart...Although this song is dedicated to our troops,it reminded me of my 8 year old daughter. Her father died in an accident this past march. She is having a hard time dealing w/ the fact that he's not here this christmas.So am I!!! I pray for the safety of all our troops & the familys that are spending christmas alone. To the girl who wrote this, u are very talented, I hope he comes home for christmas, I will be buyin this,although I don't want my daughter to hear it, it touched me, thank you & best wishes to you & your family.MERRY CHRISTMAS

Thank you so much!
by Catharine
My husband has been deployed for the past 14 months to Kuwait. Its so hard on our family especially our two young daughters who are 3 years old and 9 months. They are too young to understand why their Daddy cant be home for their birthdays and holidays. This song really hits home. I cried the whole time watching it. Unless you've been there you will never know how heart breaking it is when your child asks you why Daddy cant come home from work. He should be coming home next month sometime and we are all looking forward to seeing him again. Thank you again for this wonderful song/video.

thank you
by brandie
this song is great. i don't have a family member of friends over there yet but soon may. i feel so sad for this little girl singing this song and i know many kids are hoping for the exact ssam thing on christmas morning. god bless the soilders and their families during the hoildays and all year . thank you for what you are doing and hurry home to your families soon . merry christmas.

Awesome!!!!
by Stacie Barnes
I listen to Moby in the Morning on South 107 and caught the tail end of his talk about this song so I came home to listen to it this morning. After listening to this song it reminds me that my 5 year old daughter is very fortunate to have her mom and dad with her every Christmas. I do not have the awful task of telling her that her daddy won't be home for Christmas because he is fighting to keep our freedom, but to those of you who have that awful task may I say thank you. You and your families are my heros. You all give so much of yourself without blinking an eye and for that I will forever be thankful. To the writers of this song, you are extremely talented and thank you for making me once again take the time to let my daughter know that there are others who aren't as fortunate. May God bless you all!!!

nice
by Dio
Good song I suppose, though I dont have anyone oversea's other then a friends father. I hope he can return home, though he might have. I dont know nor have I asked. Anyways nice song..

Thank you
by Colleen Gonder, PA
I heard this song for the first time today, it brought tears to my eyes. I have a brother in-law who is in Army Reserves and also activated. His was expecting to be deployed this year for the second term, but is looking at summer for a deployment time. I want to thank all of our service men and women who are here in the states and across the seas for all they have done to keep us safe here and around the world. I pray that everyone comes home safely. And for all those who are away from their families this christmas, A very special pray goes out to you- Be safe, Thank you, and Merry Chistmas!!!!

Wonderful Song!!!!!!
by Crystal / Arkansas
I just wanted to tell you that " you have created an AWESOME song. I heard it on the radio coming ome from work on a Thursday evening.Of course like everyone else I was balling like a little baby. I stopped at a red light & looked over at the car next to mine.The lady in it was crying her eyes out like me. I rolled down the window & asked 95.7? (meaning the radio station)She shook her head yes. at that moment I knew that this was going to become the best Christmas song ever. I googled it when I got home & luck for me I found it. When my hubby got home that night I made him listen & that is the first time I have seen him cry in forever. That shows you have a great song. My brother-in-law is in Iraq, so I passed it along to his wife & she called Thanking Me.... Once I got to work the next morning, I sent it to the ENTIRE CO. While walking the halls after it was sent, all you hear is sniffles..... The little girl sounds soooooooooooooooooo precious. You all did a WONDERFUL job. Keep the tunes rolling... I hope you all have a safe & wonderful Christmas....

What is the name of the little girl who's singing this? This is a song that touched my heart.

WONDERFUL!
by Shonda Monighan
This song was so beautiful.It made my heart melt and drop at the same time. I loved it. My best friend is in the military and there might be a chance she will be sent to Iraq and her husband they have three boys and my heart goes out to all the military families that have loved ones over fighting for our country. Thanks so much for sharing this wonderful song to all of us!

Little Girl
by Ashley
I loved that song I was listening to it one day in the car and i found myself crying on the inside...I dont have any members over there but pretty soon i might so I think its really cute that that girl sang that song and i hope her dad can hear it...

Love it!

I don't have a family member in the military right now overseas, but so far have had to say goodbye to 2 friends in the last 2 years that weren't so lucky to make it home safe. They both had small children and i just lost it when i heard this song. God Bless all the men and women who fight for this country and whos families miss them everyday so they can do so. Thank You Very Much.

so true!
by Amy
The very first time I heard this song, I cried my eyes out! I called my husband and told him to listen (I was om my way to work. My husband is in the Army and this song says it all! We have two kids and when he was in Iraq our daughter was only an infant so she didn't realize what was going on but our son was 8 years old and he had a really rough time with it, but thankfully our soldier came home just a few days before Christmas. I hope this helps others realize how important our soldiers are to our freedom and wonderful lives that we live in this great country. People may not agree with the war but they need to support the soldiers and their famlies.

Touching my heart
by Gina
Although i don't have any of my own family over sea's, But when i heard this song it touched my heart. I found myself crying listening to this little girl sing about her dad. Crying in sadness for the troops who can't spend christmas with their family, and cryig in happiness because we all are so blessed to have troops that are brave, and strong.....i want to sayh thank you to all the troops, this year and though some of you can't be here this christmas, you are in our prayers and our hearts. To the family's, Merry Christmas to you also. BRING OUR TROOPS HOME SAFE !

Awesome
by S. Rittenberry
This song is so sad, but it is wonderful. I know there are so many children out there wishing for the same thing.

MY COUSIN IN THE ARMY
by Norma Medrano
When i heard this song it made me think about how i miss my cousin. Which can not spend Christmas or New Years with us. But I know that it is his job I just wish he could be here with us. I am glad that this song was made. I realy do love this song

Important
by Tara B.
All I have to say is WOW! I heard this when I was getting ready for bed, I immediately started crying- my sister is in the Navy and when the kid sang the part "And Santa, here's a picture that I drew Of him in his dress blues" I broke down crying. Life is veyr hard when you are apart from your family for the Holidays but this song is now very important to me. I shared this song with my whole family who is having a hard time with my sister not here for Christmas. Just wanted to say THANKS!

For my brother Brad
by Traci
My brother left this Decemeber for Iraq. I heard this song in the car running errands and I just started crying...I could just hear his daughter Angela sing this song to her Dad. I honor all the service men and women who give their lives for us to be free and for all the little girls out their who are missing their daddies this Christmas! Thank you Brad for what you are doing for all of us and to your wife Vicky & Angela for their braviory. I love you guys! God bless America!

by carie

AMAZING!
by Jennie
So my little girl is 8. Her dad has been on many deployments and has missed Christmas. And for the next two years, he'll be missing Christmas again as he will be deployed overseas without us for a very extended amount of time. When my kids heard this song, they got sad. They remembered their daddy leaving. But more then anything they know what the future holds and that for the next two years, this song will be close to our hearts. The next Christmas he'll have with our daughter, she will be 11. So much will have changed by then. You song is amazing, and so touching. It brings out the true feelings a little girl has at a time in their lives when they need their daddy the most. Thank you so much for writing this lovely song!

i cried like a baby
by Tiffany
i am 17 years old and i can remember christmas' when my father was overseas and now im engaged to someone who is in the army and he is overseas too and will miss this christmas, i was on myspace when i first heard this and there was a video that accompanied it and the video made it all the more sad. after hearing this song i called my fiance's mother and let her hear this song and she cried too. i love how it comes from a childs point of view but anyone who has a loved one away with the military can relate.

Thank You
by Elizabeth
I first heard this song in the car. it made me cry so hard. My Daddy is stationed over in Okinawa, and the rest of us (4 kids and my mom) are in San Diego. this is the second Christmas with out him, and even though Im not four anymore (and havent been for 18 years) it touched my heart. Thank you.

Woderful Word
by dmm
There isn't any other words that could say what that little girl had on her mind and heart she had the right felling for everybody out there that , That's right "Bring Them Home" she sure got my attention. Also she has the right voice and the right words. GREAT JOB Her voice will get everyone ears to listen. We support out troops

by Bobby
I just got the link for this site and it said get a kleenex... I needed it I love the song and of course...cryed

by Kimberly
this beautiful song touched me in a way i have never known. to think of the children without both parents to great them christmas morning, brings me to tears. i have never been so greatful for this song and most of all our troops that are missing their families this christmas and it makes me greatful for my family. God bless you and GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS! merry christmas men and women who are fighting for this country and so we all may spend christmas with loved ones. Merry Christmas!

broken heart
by marriana
im still listening to this song the last 5days befor christmas it broke my hart when i herd it ,wish everyone in iraq good luck.

amazing
by Cheryl
I work for the Air Force. When I heard it on the radio I had every one I could find come to my office to hear it. It brings tears to your eyes. The little girl sounds so sweet and innocent she has a wonderful voice. It's #1 song of 2007 to me. Merry Christmas to all the Soldiers over there fighting for our freedoms. You are loved.

Everyone needs to hear this
by AMY
I heard the song for the first time on the radio today and watched a video someone put together on U tube with it. My husband is deployed to Iraq for the third time and has missed many Christmases either in Iraq or deployed elsewhere. My 6 yr old son asked Santa this year to get his daddy a new gun so he could get all the bad guys and come back home quicker. It is so heartbreaking to think that my children and the children of other soldiers have to grow up so quickly and have thier little hearts broken year after year. I hope this song helps others without soldier family members to understand not only the sacrifice they make, but the sacrifice that thier children and families make every day and at Christmas.

Exquisite
by Dora
Very touching : my eyes filled with tears . This child has the nicest voice! I am happy someone pointed me to this site. It made my day!

That was awesome
by Rachel :-)
I really liked that song it mde me think of all the people serving for the military an dhow their childeren are feelin' about their parent and/or parents serving for the military. It almost made me cry but not quite thank you for all the people who are serving for the military and saving our lives.

my husbands in the US Air Force and is deploying in May
by Christina Tweedie
My name is Christina, I am a recent newly wed, June 23, 2007 to my husband who is serving as a Reservist for the United States Air Force. Come May 2008 he will deploy to Afganistan for 6 months. I first heard this song on 93.7 The Bull (St Louis, MO area) on my way home from college and I litterally had to pull of the side of the road. I cried so hard when I heard it. And, to make things worse, my husbands brother just graduated basic for the Army and after his training, his first duty station more than likely be Iraq bc he is medical. So he will be in Iraq when my husband will be in Afganistan. But, I thank the writters of this song for the meaning that this brings to all the military families. I pray to God daily for their safety and for the families of the fallen soldiers! May GOD BLESS AMERICA!!! Thank you, Christina

I love this song!!
by Tabby
I'm 12 and I love this song so much. It is soooooo cute! My dad is not overseas, but one of my cousins are, and he has young children. That is agreat song and I love the way it is sung!! Merry Christmas to everyone and I'm praying for our troops.

A Heart Touching Song...
by Tony Momsen
A friend of mine sent me an email about this song. She had apparently cried as she listened to this song. She wondered whether it would effect a man like it did her. I have to say yes it does. I was a former Army Sgt during the Viet Nam Era. Even though I spent my tour in Germany I saw what father's went through being away from their families. Great song keep it going it's fantastic...

Missing my husband
by Shannon
This song has made me cry every single time I listen to it. My husband is the Marine's and is currently stationed in Iraq. He will be home next year sometime, and this song just hits so close to home. Thank you for making this!

AWESOME SONG!
by Bonnie
As a child my father was in the Army and I too can relate to this little soft angel singing from her heart, I heard this song for the first time sitting in my truck listening to WFMS 95.5 in Indianapolis, IN. I cried from the first line in this song and didn't stop until I had to go back into work from my lunch break. GOD BLESS THE SONGWRITERS and the Little angel who sang this song, such a sweet, claming voice that just melts your heart. We all can truely relate to this song even if you don't have anyone in the service. This song is a reminder of the children and spouses who are going through these emotions all year long, but Christmas especially. I have read all the comments and my heart is truely touched to see how much people still care for one another. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TOUCHING MY HEART AND SOUL. This song will grow by the minute and THANKS TO all the radio stations in the USA for playing this song, and it shouldn't only be at christmas that this song is played. PLAY IT ALL YEAR LONG.

THANKS
by Forguson's (Suffolk VA)
This song is very gripping, it will make you realize that we cannot all be with the people that we LOVE and long to be with. I have had several friends go to Iraq but I have lost contact with many of them so I do not know if they made it home safe or not. I pray for their familes that they will spend a wonderful holiday this year and many more. Thank You to all the MEN & WOMEN of all branches of servies and MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR. Stay safe and kick butt....

Heartfelt
by Caity
This is one amzing song. The first time I heard it I was sitting in the car with my fiance the night before he was leaving for iraq and we both broke out in tears. What our military does over there is amazing but it doesnt make it less hard for them and their family and friends to be away for Christmas. I didnt cry when I first heard the song but when i saw the video the tears came, especially at the end when the little boy ran to his dad. Thankyou whover for this song.

family
by Debbie
my son was over in Iraq and now my son-in-law is there and leaves at home a 10 month old and 4 year old. This song is wonderful and made me cry. Thank you

by kayla
The First two times i heard it i cryied. I think about how Thousands or Millions who have died in the past wars,The presant, and how many are going to die. You never know who is on what side. so be careful who you trust. There are alot of kids without a dad or mom on this Christmas.For you gus or girls Hag in there. I hope you will see them soon. Don't let anyone get to your heart about your mom or dad. Just Belive. that is from My Heart.

by Brittanee
My daddy was a soldier, so when I heard that song I started to cry remembering the memories of asking Sants the same thing when I was little.

by Adrienne Sladek
this song is so strong in my life. my brother was in iraq last year for Christmas..he almost had to be there again this year. and he's supposed to be there next year for Christmas again. his baby girl is 2 1/2 now, and i cant imagine what she's gonna do when her daddy leaves her again. thanks to all the military families, and please tell your loved one(s) in the military that a Marine Corps sister says thank you from the bottom of my heart! Semper Fi

by Mike
I am a retired Air Force Vet and man can you relate to this song. It about tore my heart out.. I recently had a daughter and cant imagine spending christmas without her.

Come home soon and God Bless!

You don't have to be a little girl to want them home...
by Diane
Both of my sons are in the military. I don't have any grandchildren yet, But you don't have to be a little girl to ask Santa to bring them safely home to their loved ones. Thank you for the song, and Santa, if you read this, will you please bring 'em safely home?

TOUCHED
by Debra
This was a very wonderful song at this time of year. i also have loved ones that won't be coming home this for christmas. I am going to keep this song in my heart for everyone out that has a loved one that won'tbe coming home for christmas. When i first heard this song i had to pull my car over becuase i couldn't drive in traffic and cry at the same time. I cry every time I hear the song. Thanks to all for the song in memories of our guys fighting for all of us. In hopes to BRING them all HOME safe.

beautiful

AWWWWW :'}
by Becca(age14) and Cayla (age7)
This little girl is so cute. My cousin and started to cry. I was very touched, for a little girl her age to sing about giving up her soccer ball and barbies is precious. It makes you think about what you would give up just to get a loved one home from Iraq. Thank you to all those who serve to keep us safe in our beds at night. Thank you to those who die everyday and to tose never get to see their families. What they give up can never be matched by our efforts because they give so much.

I cried
by Chris Runge
My name is Chris R. I am currently serveing in the United States Navy and I was on board my ship one of the few times we are in port and I was listening to the radio while I cleaned the space I work in. At the time I was the only one in there and this song came on, 97.3 the eagle. At first I listening to the song thinking it was pretty good, until the young girl asked for santa to bring her dad home, back from the war. almost instantly I started to cry. When my co-workers came in and seen me they asked why, I made them come on to this site and listen to the song. the all started to tear up as well. Thank you so much.

sad,sad,sad!
by Valerie
when i heard it on the radio i cried soooo hard! thank you so much to all the people that are serving our country!

Hit home for my family
by Susan
I really cried. My husband was in Iraq 2 years ago at Christmas. He missed my son's first Christmas and Christmas with our 4 year old daughter. She really missed her dad. I hope this helps others realize how important our soldiers are to our freedom and wonderful lives that we live in this great country. People may not agree with the war but they need to support the soldiers and their famlies.

Thank You!
by Pam
Thank you so much for recording such a wonderful song. This song should put the meaning of Christmas and everything that it means into perspective for everyone. I hope when people sit down to Christmas dinner with their families that they remember in their prayers all of those brave men and women that aren't home for Christmas. We should be keeping them in our hearts and prayers everyday and praying that they all come home safe. Thank you again. This song has really touched my heart.

The Best Christmas Song Ever!
by Tears
I heard this song at work yesterday, and I cannot tell you what it means to everyone here. Everyone knows someone in the military and it's heartbreaking to think of them overseas alone at Christmas. This song has touched so many people. To whoever the little girl is....you are such a special little girl and your daddy is a very lucky man to have someone in his life as special as you!

This song says it all!
by Desiree' US Marine
I am a Marine and so is my fiance, next christmas he will be in iraq for his first tour and i will probably beat him over there for my first. We do not have any childrean of our own yet but we do have 1 very special little girl we hold near and dear to our hearts she is my best friends little girl and she is 3...her mother was also a marine for a short time she was medical discharge...but she was always very confused why uncle eric aunt desiree and mommy had to leave her. now she is constantly asking wheres eric when is desiree coming home...it breaks our hearts but to hear this song makes me smile because i know shes not alone in this time of war, she is not the only little girl with these emotions she doesnt even understand yet. thenk you for sharing this song!

touching
by abigal bean vermont
I loved this song it was so sad and cute she is the swettest little kid her parents must aprecate this song. she is a very genours little girl to bring her father home for the holidays

Thank you!!
by Jennifer Dyer
I live in Virginia and here we have a radio station called Eagle 97.3. This morning they played this song and next thing I knew Im at a stop light and tears are strolling down my face. I could not help but think about the times when my ex husband was called overseas during the holidays, my brother who spent his first two Christmas in the Air Force overseas and all my friends who are on the battlegroups who are over there fighting for our Freedom as we speak. We take so much for granted and yet here is this sweet little girl saying very basic words that make you realize all you have to be thankful for. I hope Santa brings all of our men and women of the armed forces home for Christmas, Thank you!!!

Great Song!
by Julianne
This is a great song! When I heard it it made me cry!

I just heard this song for the first time today, and it brought the tears to my eyes, For my son just got home Iraq yesterday and what a great Christmas gift to his wife this is, and I just hope and pray that more families get there loved ones home as well. To everyone who hears this song, it will just brake your heart. My prayers and love go out to all of our Military services for what you do to keep us all safe and sound at home, You are never forgot, I am also a member of the Patriot Guard Riders and we will alway's keep you in our heart's and in our prayers everyday.

This is amazing!!!
by Andrea
I heard it this morning for the first time as I drove to work. I couldnt help but cry as I listened to the words. I have never felt more grateful to have the time I do with my family and friends. Words could never express enough thanks to our men and women fighting for our freedoms...Freedoms we so often take for granted. THANK YOU for all you do for us!!! God bless! Merry Christmas and may you all return home safely!!! THANK YOU for writing this song. It truly touched my heart. What a wonderful tribute to such amazing people and their families who have sacrified to share their courage with the rest of the country!!!

a great song!
by Sarah
I just heard the song this morning while riding on the bus to school, and i must say, that no other song has made me realize what them and their families go through. Thank you!

Wonderfully Touching
by Karie
I heard this song for the first time on the radio on my way to work yesterday and I was in tears. I knew I had to look for it. The little girl singing is adorable and it's so sad. I feel for anyone who has loved ones they are going to miss this holiday season because they are away on deployment or for other reasons. My special thanks to our troops. I don't know what it's like to not have my dad home on Christmas, but I know what its like to not have your mom there and it hurts.

amazing
by christina
I heard about this song from friends.. I have a brother in law who was just deployed to Iraq for the 3rd time, a dad who served for 20 years and a little sister now serving. You cannot hear this song and not cry. Thank you to all the men and women who are serving, we will never know all that you sacrifice to protect and serve our country.

Amazing!
by Liberty Bean
This is an amazing song with an amazing story! They've been playing it here on radio for a couple of weeks and it makes me cry every time I hear it. Thanks, Rory, for sharing the behind-the-scenes story with us and for more concerned with the little girl's wellfare and the impact on those who hear the song than with the almight dollar. My local radio station is a huge supporter of St. Jude's and Capitol's involvement on that front just makes it that much more awesome. I'm going to buy it as soon as I get home and encourage everyone I know to do so as well! May everyone involved with this project and everyone who hears the song have a very blessed and very Merry Christmas! 12-20-07

love it
by gladys
I love this song.I could listen to it for hours.I can sing it for hours.

I just heard the song and it made me cry. I don't have any family in any of the services. I can only imagine how it feels this time of year. Beautiful song.

by Amy NC
Let me tell you, This song says it all. I dont know how it feels to have someone you LOVE over seas fighting for us here at home, BUT I can tell you that when I hear about the brave MEN and WOMEN and how they are so strong it bring tears to my eyes and I can only imagin how they feel. This song means A LOT, My dad was in the army and I am glad I was way to young to know any better. KEEP THE FAITH AND THEY ARE ALWAYS IN MY PRAYS..... NEVER WILL BE FORGOTTEN..... Thank you... Thank you for all you have done to keep us save here in the USA.

thats the saddest song i have ever heard
by courtney
when i heard the song for the first time it made me cry it still does at times. my older brother is over in iraq right now and he just had a a baby boy not that long ago. he is not able to be there to see his song grow up and it is not fair at all. they need to just bring the troops home.

WOW!!!
by Kiki T.
This song breaks my heart this was my kids 4yrs ago and still this is a tender subject in my house...Thank you!!!

This song is Amazing
by Brittany Van Buren
Coming feom a military family I now what it is like not having my whole family together on christmas. This song is such a great song. I thank every man and woman in uniform serving our country and pray for all of them to return home safely. Merry Christmas to everyone and Happy New Year.

Thank you
by JAM
I had a Christmas wish like this over 50 years ago--mine came true. My Dad was in the Air Force and came home from TDY on Christmas Eve when I was three. I wish all the parents overseas could be with their children on Christmas but, I also know that's not going to happen. Growing up around the military, you would think I'd have gotten used to soldiers being deployed and then the wait for them to come home...but you never get used to it. I work with National Guard sodiers now & have watched many of them leave and, thankfully, return. I still cry every time. I heard this song driving home last night and almost had to pull off the road I was crying so hard. I just lost my Dad last month and have been having a hard time being "merry" this holiday season. This song really reminded me of that Christmas so many years ago. I think Dad was letting me know that he's still around & all I have to do is remember and he'll be here. Thank you so much for reminding me. And to all of the military men and women overseas: Godspeed and have a safe journey home to your families.

last night
by by kaela

heard this on B100
by george & morrae.
MY wife and I had just parked at the library when this song came on the radio. B100 country station out of south bend,indiana. WE sat and listen to it and both wipe tears out of our eyes. we don't have anyone in the sevice, but i'm a truckdriver, and alot of drivers now a days are missed during the holidays,for they sometimes can't be home do to load or other unknown reason to keep them out on the road. This song is the greatest new christmas song to come out sence Bing Crosby White Christmas. we'll charish it for years to come. thanks

Dear Santa Song
by Charles Brock
I know how it feels to be far away when christmas time comes cause i was gone last year at christmas time and missed my sons first christmas and i was so sad when i heard this song cause it reminded me of that time and all that i missed and also all the things we do for this country and the people who appriciate it from the united states military thank you for this song

Wow. This song is absolutely incredible. My fiance just enlisted in the Army, and he'll be leaving January 3rd for basic training, and won't be back for a proper visit until May. I've been so terrified ever since he made this decision, but this song really made me feel like I'm not the only one. I can only pray that by the time our children are born, Dalton will be done in the Army so that my babies don't have to miss Daddy at Christmas. Thank you for this amazing, heartbreaking song.

More than Amazing!
by Tori
This song has touched more people than you'll ever know. Not only Military families, but those who simply just know a person overseas. I must say that everytime the song comes on the radio tears roll down my face. Being a Military Fiance, it really hit home with me. We can't all be with our loved ones this Christmas, and unfortunately I'm one of this crowd. Amazing song...absolutely amazing!

awesome song
by Ashley H. Virginia
My husband will soon deploy for his 4th deployment. It never gets any easier. We were out Christmas shopping this weekend and I heard this song for the 1st time. I said "Stop turn it up". Of course i cried. I always try to stay strong, because once I break down then that makes him feel helpless. I do show my emotions at times but this time the tears were flowing. We have 2 daughters that are 10 and 5 year old. I have to stay strong for them too. Its very hard but then hearing songs like this sometimes does actually make it easier because you can hear others feeling your pain. God Bless all of you!

AMAZING

Bring Him Home
by Linda
My husband and I were listening the song and we both cried. I cried hard!!! My son will be heading back to Iraq in January for the 4th time. And I keep thinking about him. He has 2 beautiful kids, one is 4 months old and other is 4 years old. We are so damn proud of him. Thanks for the beautiful son and I pray for all, and I mean all, of those soldiers come home very soon!

by Nina
It made me cry. Songs never make me cry. I have a best friend in military. Santa please bring them all home.

Amazing
by Stephanie
Blessed, that is what we are to have fellow Americans who are putting their lives on the line for us everyday. Thanks you, and thank you to the families who's loved ones are over there. I think we all need to get on our knee and ask for their safe return home, where they belong. How can we get this to our major TV stations and to our president...to let him see what people are going through.

wow.
by ashley
i loved this song my mom told me about it and i just had to check it out. i am currently serving overseas and it brought tears to my eyes! i love you mom and dad and peter,shawn,amber,autumn i miss you too

It'll last for ages, thank you
by Scott
I heard your song for the first time today while driving across Iowa. It was just the radio and myself, the radio playing (CHRISTmas music). Singing along and thinking about my 24 year old daughter who lives three hours away, and don't get to see as often as we would like to. She will be moving further away to the the east coast after the first of the new year. When the first phrase of the song "Dear Santa" came on with the little girls voice. I couldn't help myself but become focused on the song. I almost had to pull over to the side of the road as it caused my eyes to well up with tears as I had just been thinking about my daughter, and here this song sung by a beautiful young girl missing her father. I quickly said a quick Thank You Lord for this song. Then said to myself this song: "It'll last for ages to come" Thanks Rory & Tim

WOW!
by mfc
The first time i heard this song, i could barely hold back tears! When i saw the video from YouTube, I sobbed. It is such a sad thing that so many kids have to have Christmas without a parent or parents. As a fifteen year old, i understand how hard it is to have a parent leave you and i really wish that all the troops could come home forever!

SWEET
by Briana
Very tender song. It made me cry.

I cry every time I hear it.
by Vicki R. - N. KY
It is a wonderful and touching song. It helps to keep things in perspective when some people tend to forget that there are so many men and women over there. May we never forget the service men and women, as well as the civilian firefighters and bomb squad members working over there daily to ensure that we all have a safe and happy holiday. May god bless them everyone and wish them all a safe return home soon!

From a thankful family
by Grateful
We were blessed with the miracle of daddy coming home a few weeks ago, hurt but home, luckily in time for christmas, it was his 3rd deployment, his 3rd missed year of his daughters lives. This song, it's beautiful, it puts things in perspective for many who dont understand, and it reminds us all to be thankful who have our soldiers home, and keep praying for those that have yet to return. From my little girls to you -Thank you.

video
by Peter J Monde

Emotional song
by Kaitlyn Wakefield
For a little six year old, this song is amazing. This song brought tears to my eyes. This girl should get a record deal for this song (: take a moment and pray for our troops out there fighting the war in Iraq. Hope all will have a very merry christmas. Keep safe & warm....

Don't listen to while driving...
by Dianna
The first time I heard this song I was in car, and imediatley started tearing up;( This song is so true for so many childern;( I had a close friend that was deployed for 18 months (is now home) and was just thinking I'm glad this song wasn't on last year for his family;) But then was thinking how there are so many childern that have to spend Christmas w/out their father or mother and how awfull the thought if it is! I want to give a big thanks to the men and women overseas, not being able to be with thier families for the holidays! HAPPY HOLIDAYS!! And a big thanks to you guys for making this song happen, and having an amazing little girl sing it, just makes it all the more real!

god bless the troops!
by Larry
I was driving in the car when I heard this song on the radio. I had to pull over and wipe away the tears. It made me think about how many men and women wont be home this Christmas! We are thinking of you!

i love this song
by Audry
it's so cute!!! i love the meaning behind the song and how they made it into a Christmas song. I cant imagine being a person with a loved one at war. But all i can say is that i love this song!!!

A Soldiers in Iraq's mom

When I first heard the song I was crying so hard all the way through - wish songs could make it come true! I miss my Soldier son and the closer it gets to Christmas the harder it becomes. Thanks for all the prayers!

I just heard this song on the radio while doing dishes and i had to stop because tears were falling from my face. That is a really strong song! I just want to say thanks to all those who are serving in the US Military and those families out there that live without their husbands, wives, daddies, mommies, brothers, sisters ect. Thank you all!!

Sad
by Kaitlin
Oh man! This song made me bawl. My mom heard it come on the radio the other night on our way home, and she was like, You need to listen to this! It will make you cry! Well, needless to say, I did. Its absolutely beautiful. I absolutely adore the little child that sang this.

WHAT MORE CAN WE ASK FOR............
by MAYRA
AS I HEARD IT TEARS JUST STARTED ROLLING DOWN. WHAT ELSE MORE DO WE WANT. . . .THAN OUR OWN KIDS ASKING FOR DADDY. . . .

So touching!!
by Lori Monterrosas
I cannot tell you how much you song has touched me. I am a Marine wife of 10 years and there have been so many songs that have been made. This song by far has really touched a place in my heart like no other. My husband and I have 2 beautiful daughters together and have been very fortunate to have been able to spend every holiday together. This song has really made me realize just how fortunate I am. There are those who do not get that. I know that one day I may not be so lucky and this song will hit even closer to home!! Until then I can only say Thank you for making such a touching song!!

thank you SO MUCH!!
by cardzgurl
I really enjoyed this song and cry every time I hear it. My cousin is on his second tour and has a one year old son. Throughout the whole video I kept thinking of little Ty and his mom at home while Frank was serving our country. This song reminds me how real the war really is and that we really need to support what the soldiers are doing to protect our freedom.

So sweet
by Jennifer Austin
This song is amazing! It makes me cry everytime I hear it. My brother was away in Iraq last Christmas and is in Africa this Christmas. It is so hard for families that have loved ones so far away. My prayers are with all the soilders and their families and God Bless them all.

Family
by Riley
My sister served in the army, over in Iraq. I was so sad for the two years she was there. I used to pray to God telling him to end this war and just bring her home. Christmas was the saddest time for me then. When I was little I would run into her room and just jump in the bed yelling, "Wake up, wake up. Santa came." She would tickle me and we would run and get our parents. Both of us would open the gifts and give our parents theirs. But when she was away, everything seemed less happy. No more staying up late just chatting about boys or troubles, watching scary movies and falling asleep in each other's bed because we didn't feel like getting up or I was just to scared. One year I wrote a letter to Santa in the middle of the summer, asking him to bring her home to us. I gave it to my mother and she put it in the mailbox. That year she came home. I was so happy that I started crying. I never asked for anything that Christmas. The one thing I wanted he had brought me.

it is so beautiful
by emily
oh my god that some is so cute i can't belive a 5 yr old girl sung that it is so cute

OMG
by Bluey (nick name)
that made me cry, and so did the movie abuot it on youtube. im so glade i live in australia! poor girl

Best Song I Ever Heard
by Sophie
That song made me cry. It just now came to me that some dads and moms will not be with their families for Christmas. I am ten years old and a girls dad in my class and former principal had to leave a few days ago and will be back in summer 2008. It touched me that such a little girl wants her dad to be home for Christmas. I LOVE THAT SONG.

How Precious
by Gradie
She sounds so much like my 5 year old grand daughter.. but the words so so much like my nephew..Praise the Lord he is home safely though last Christmas he wasn't able to come home!! God Bless and keep all our men and women safe until Santa can bring them home!!

The first time I heard it.
by Julie
i live in Colorado Springs, Colorado. We are a military town. With Air Force and Army being the most of the forces we have here. When our troops come home to Ft. Carson, it is on the news and we all get to cheer. I think this song strikes a nerve with all that hear it. Military town or not. We all want them home safely and pray for them and their families EVERY DAY! Society is becoming numb to what is going on over there because it is ALWAYS in the news for one thing or another. Songs or stories that can humanize it a little more are a good thing. Thanks!

Teary eyed
by Corey Haas
There has only been one other song that has made me cry. The first time I heard this song I almost had to pull over because my eyes were full of tears. It really makes me take for granted the fact that I get to spend the Christmas holidays with my whole family. God Bless our troops for everything they do for us. Thank you for everything. Come home soon!!!!

Made me Think
by Jenn
After hearing this song on the radio, I looked it up online and called some of my co-workers into my office for them to listen. We had some wet eyes thats for sure. Made us all think about all the men and women serving us. Just a big THANK YOU to all of them

Bring Him Home Santa
by Kansas Band Class
We watched this video with our high school band and choir class. Many of us cried, including some guys, and our teacher. It's a very emotional clip that hit many of us in the heart and we loved watching it. The ending clip was probably our favorite and it adds the true meaning of the song to the video.

really hits home
by denita
I heard this song the other night for the first time and it brought tears to my eyes.I never had a song touch me quite as much as this one. A very good friend of mine is over is Iraq and he will be missing his family thisyear. Thanks so much for the song. very inspirational.

I cried too.
by Annii
I usually don't cry when I listen to songs about or for our soldiers. I have a sister in the military, but crying just never seems like the thing I should do. This one brought me to tears immediately. So beautiful... Good job.

I love this little girl
by Chris Miller
When I heard the intro on the radio, I had never even heard of the song. The moment I heard the little voice; I knew it was going it was going to go wrong! I think I made it almost to the chorus before I had to pull my van over because I needed windshield wipers on my eyes. I this country, have served, and ALWAYS support our troops and our President. These men and women are the absolute reason that we are able to share this with each other and lead our lives the way that we want to. To hear a small child remind us of the real sacrifice these people and their families endure is another testament of the strength of our great nation! Thank you!!!!

I cried!
by Krystal H.
Thank you so much for the song. I heard it for the first time in my truck doing christmas shopping. My husband is currently in Iraq and will not be home until maybe march. This is our second christmas without him. This song says it all for me and my daughter while we wait for his safe return. Thanks for getting our message out their!

Thank You
by Kevin
Thank you for writing this song. It is one of the most touching songs I have ever heard. It is not often that I cry, but this song had me weeping like a little child. I can not imagine having to have Christmas without my father. Thank you so much.

Thank you
by Corey Smith
when i heard this song i started to cry and thank of are troups over there...

Beautiful
by Amanda
I absolutely love this song. I could not help but cry when I heard it on the radio going to work this morning. I have spent 3 Christmas's alone in the last 5 years while my husband was deployed to Iraq, so I can really identify with the song's meaning. It is the most difficult time of year for the soldiers that are deployed and their families. I hope this song touches others as much as it has me. Thank you, and God Bless our military.

i cried
by nicole
my husband is in the army and we are expecting our first baby. he is supposed to get deployed next december. i hope and pray that our baby gets to spend his first christmas with his daddy.

WONDERFUL!!
by Laura
My husband was there last year and I have 2 children and I know how it feels...He was there 16 months BOG and I know it is hard--hang in there and if you need someone to talk to I will gladly listen it would have made a huge difference if I had had someone to listen to me

BRING HIM HOME SANTA

by Sharon
I was on my way home from work yesterday and I heard it for the first time. I had to pull over because I was crying and couldn't focus on the road. After it was done playing I sat there on side of the road and cried some more. I hope every one hears this beautiful song and realizes how many of our troops are fighting for our freedom and others. I wish they all could be home with their families for Christmas..Thank You troops, for keeping us safe from harm. You are the best.

Where R the Kleenix?
by TLee
WOW, What a powerful message of hope and support for our men and women serving their country at this time of the year. As a retired Navy man, who fought some campaigns for our great nation. I want applaud all who made the song possible, and I especially am thankful that St. Jude's is going to benifit from the sale proceeds. Merry Christmas and Blessed New Year.

oh my goodness!!
by denise
unbelievable..so precious..god bless all of our troops.

Soul stirring
by Nancy R. Hoglen
I heard this song on the radio this morning, but only caught part of it, when I got to work I searched the web to find it. When I found it and watched the song diary I was almost sobbing. The girl that works with me said, "what is wrong?" All I could do was motion for her to come to my computer, we watched it again and it had the same affect on her, patients were checking in and we were just standing there crying. I do not personally have a family member in the service, but I do have a 19month old little girland it means so much to me to know there are people fighting for her and me, and for the less fortunate around the world. Thank you for this song and the awareness it has brought and the awareness it has yet to bring, and thank you to all the men and women in the armed service in Iraq and anywhere else, stateside or on foreign soil. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

My Prayer
by Tina
After hearing this song, I shared it with everyone I know. It makes me remember those fighting for our freedom but it also reminds me to pray for those families that are here without their loved ones. God Bless these families and their family members that are away from home this Christmas season and I pray that Your will be done in each and every life effected by this war. In Jesus Name I pray. Amen

I have shared this with everyone I know
by Karen Pudela
I heard the song for the first time this morning on my way to work, I completly ruined my makeup and had to fix it when I got there. What a wonderful song and said so well from a childs heart! My husband is with the United States Coast Guard and was deployed from Febuary 04 until December 13th 2004 how lucky we were to have him home just in time for Christmas we missed him very much. I have had yellow ribbons on all our trees since the day he found out he was deployed and every year since a small American Flag and a yellow ribbon adorn my Christmas wreath... Thank you very much for a song that has touched so many hearts ..God Bless you

This is a great song!!!
by Ronda Thieman
The moment I heard this song, I began to cry!! My brother just flew home today!! He will be able to spend Christmas with us all this year. He has been to Iraq twice, and both times were very hard!! I admire and respect all the men and women who are serving our country. We wouldn't have the freedoms that we have today if it weren't for you all.I pray for each and every one of you to return home safely. May God bless you all!!!!Happy Holidays to you all!!!!

Touched My Heart
by Debbie
I heard this song on the radio today and it made me cry. Right before Thanksgiving, we learned that husband (a Sea Bee with the US Navy) would be shipping out to Afghanistan on December 17th. We have two children, one of whom will be celebrating his first birthday on Dec. 22 and all I wanted was for him to see his son turn 1. At the last minute, the orders got changed and now he's not leaving til Jan. 2. This *song* was my Christmas wish, and for me, at least, it came true. Thank you so much for this song!

Awesome Song!!!!!!!
by Theresa
I have never had to experience having a family member away for the holidays but my heart goes out to the ones that do. This song brings it home. Thank you to all the men and women fighting for our Country. I had to rush home and play this song on the computer for my husband and granddaughter it is a very special song. Merry Christmas to all in the military and their families. God Bless and may God bring you home safely.

Nurses cry...
by kelly RN
I listened to the song first, then I watched the video with the song...and wow! What an impact--my eyes are still wet after hearing that song and watching the video..God bless the minds behind this song and God bless our Soldiers..Merry Christmas to you all...Be safe!

A great song
by Chelsea Field
My husband is in the military and was gone for Christmas last year. This song really touched me. I was driving down the road when I heard this song for the first time. I was crying so hard I had to pull over and stop. I have a 5 year old daughter (who was 4 last year) who knew her daddy was gone for Christmas and what he was doing. She absolutely loves the song. This song and little girl who sings it have touched our lives in a way she will never know. As a military family, we are so grateful for the work the soldiers do and the sacrifices they make. Military members and their families are special and I think about them every day. I pray for their safety and for peace for their families. This song is a great reminder of what the Holidays should really be about. It makes all the trivial day to day battles seem so small and unimportant in the grand scheme of reality. Thank you for making a song to remind all of us to be thankful for our families and our freedom. This song is amazing.

wow
by Jordan
It is a hreat song and it made me cry. I don't have anyone in my family who is over there, but I hear about it all the time. It really made me realize how awful other kids might be feeling. It is a great song and I think it shows some of the feeling people go through. It touched my heart, and i'm sure that it will touch many others.

So awesome
by Rachael O
This song made me cry. It takes me back to when my husband was gone for six months in the navy. And you just want them home with you on holidays and all the time for that matter. I think that I cried more because it was a little girl singing the song.

it made me cry
by Erica
When I heard that song it made me cry so much and made me think of the people who are serving in the military. THANK YOU to those who are serving are country and I hope everyone will return home safe and sound with their loved ones.

by kassie
thank you so much for writing this song i cried so hard. my friend had to go through that last year when her step-dad was deployed,she was sad all the time. then they had to move across country. this song means so much to me and im only 11 years old. i think it will be a number one hit amongst soldiers and familys alike.

Thank you
by Spc Sarah Cuello
I was on duty last night doing me checks when I first heard the song on the radio last night.One song has never touched my heart and hit so close to home as this one did.I am in the military myself I know how it feels not being home for christmas and praying for all my brothers and sisters in harms way.Being in the Army you have tons of friends coming and going overseas, I just had to watch my dad who is also in the service leave for Iraq recently.I lost my best friend and one of my cousins die over there this summer so it will be a quiet christmas.I played this song for their parents and we couldn't help but come to tears.You will never know how much your song impacted peoples lives, thank you for that.Merry Christmas to you and your family.

Heart Felt
by Greg
This song is awsome i have been deployed to Iraq 2 times and have missed 2 Christmas's. I know how how hard it is to spend holidays without loved ones and this song is so true. I had many friends while i was in the army and most of them had little girls at home some who didn't even know there daddy because we left right after the birth. Thank you so much for doing this song. The little girl singing the song is one special girl. thanks

Tears from a 19 y/o Male..
by Ryan Edwards
I don't really have any family overseas at this point, but WOW! The tears started flowing during this song.. What a excellent song! Ughh I'M SPEECHLESS!! I just thank God everyday for those guys and girls that are over there fighting for my freedom. I love y'all!! I appreciate all that you do, wives back at home; fathers waiting on that loving wife to come back.. God Bless You! Merry Christmas to everyone! This is the true meaning of Christmas..

What this song means to me...
by Missing my LOVED one
Although I am only 13 and my Dad's not in the Army I still cried when I heard this song because it hits home very much. One of my cousin's is in the Army and was getting msrried while he was home last month. He got married but his honeymoon wasn't till 2 weeks after the wedding because the place they wanted to go was booked up and get this the day after his wedding they called him and told him he would be deployed back to Iraq in 1 week therefore he had to miss his honeymoon.Please Santa bring him home! We miss him so much and in case he gets to read this Jordan we LOVE you so much!!!

THANK YOU!!
by Cynthia and Micaela Wheeler
I just wanted to say thank you... My husband is in the Army and deployed in Sept. for 15 mths so he won't be joining us this year for christmas, and if all works out as planned he will just make it home for christmas next year. Our 8 year old daughter heard this song and sings it every night.. She is always saying how much she misses her daddy and this song makes her feel like he is right here with us.. Thank you from the bottom of my heart you really have no idea how this song has touched my family... Thank you once again..:) MERRY CHRISTMAS and GOD BLESS YOU!

Tearful reaction
by Ann
I heard this song for the first time this morning. I was just pulling into the post office to mail my first package to my husband who left the end of November. A friend had told me about it but as soon as I heard the first part of it, I started crying. My 4 year old was with me and she asked what we were waiting for and I told her I wanted to hear this song. She started listening and then asked "where is her daddy?" I told her that he was in Afganastan with her daddy. I am very thankful for my husband and his dedication to the Navy and for all the prayers and support that go out to the military men and women who are serving. We often forget about the ones left behind and how much it affects them, especailly the chldren. This song definately puts in a child's perspective. Thank you so much for this song. I can't wait till the next time I hear it on the radio even though it will bring me to tears again.

If it was only this easy right? We'd have all our loved ones home! I first heard this song as I was driving thru the car wash getting my hubby's truck washed...he just left after Turkey Day. God Bless Our Loved Ones Who Are Far Away!!!

Amazing
by Hannah
I a 12 year old girl who is so amazed by this song. I cant even think of how hard it would be to have my dad in iraq. This song made me think so much. I love it!

Bring Him Home
by Vicky Day
As soon as I heard this song I stopped what I was doing and ran over to the radio and turned it up. This song instantly touched my heart. Now everytime I hear it I quiet everyone around and turn the radio up, stop doing whatever I am doing and just listen. This song inspired me and I'll never take anything for granted, becuase I don't have to worry about anyone I love and care about over seas, but others do. I thank whoever wrote this song and whoever helped create it and turn it into what it is now.

Luv
by Rachael Gibbs
I love this song. it is a true tearjurker. it is my favorite song in the world. i no one in my family has been sent away but i have many friends whos dads are. once again i ♥ this song!

It touched our hearts
by Cheri
Myself and two boys ages 11 and 17 heard it on the radio in the car tonight. My 17 year will join the Marines when he graduates. Someday this will be his daughter. Thanks for reminding us of the little ones and the service men and women serving our country this Christmas. I have been a soldier spending Christmas in Germany with no family. It is hard. Pray for our service men and women always.

Remembering Them STILL
by Stephanie Hastings
I really love emails and songs that are remebering the soldiers still. It seems like sometimes the world forgets that there are many still over seas and families are still feeling the loss of their loved ones gone. My husband is reinlisting so my heart goes to him and all of those who have made it an effort to continue making our contry safe and free.

Bring Him Home Santa
by Bob Heart
Dear Song trust, First, as a professional singer/writer/arranger (among other things), I applaud the companies name. A song can be an instrument of change and hope and words are the MOST powerful tool we have. As the Drive Time DJ (Mon.-Fri., 3pm-7pm, KMTS, which can be heard on the internet at KMTS.com)) on the #1 medium market station in Glenwood Springs, Colorado (about 40 minutes down valley from Aspen), the response I've gotten has been very touching and heartwarming. A friend of mine (Linda Gail Evans), who works in the Protocol office at Fort Carson in Colorado Springs, Colorado turned me on to the song. We hadn't yet put into our playlist but, I'm VERY pleased we now have. I've given many, many hours of time as a performer to various organizations and am pleased St. Jude's will be the recipient of some of the CD sales. A tip of the Stetson to Capital and all who have gotten behind this project and the artwork is PERFECT. Namaste', Bob Heart P.S. The story of the little girl singer brought tears to my eyes.

Thank You For Your Song!!
by Amanda Miller
Hi, I am an Air Force wife with 2 small girls 2 and 4. This is my husband's 5th tour but this is the first time he has been away for Christmas. I think this song says it all. Thank you for giving us an opportunity to bond together with others going through the same situation!

thank you
by Jessica Seamans
My daughter is 4 months old and her daddy was sent to Iraq 7 months ago for a 15 month tour. When I heard this song I couldn't believe how badly I was crying. It's an incredible song and so true to the hearts of every little girl and boy out there whos father or mother is overseas right now. Thank you!

Beautiful
by Krystal Thompson
What a beautiful song. I heard it on the radio yesterday while driving home and had to pull over to fight off the tears. My fiance is on his 12th month in Iraq and will be there for 15 and this song just hit me very hard. I don't have any kids yet but I can't even imagine how hard that would be. God Bless our Troops!!

Our troops
by Doris
This song really speaks truth to all of us we should not forget the sacrifice our men and women are making for us along with their families. How greatful I am to know that we have such hero's on our side willing to give of themselves in this way. It makes me so proud. I have one sone who spent two tours of dutie in Iraq, and another who has just completed boot camp and will be going for combat training in Jan. 2008 when he has completed this training he also will go to Iraq. And even though I know the danger involved with their decission. I am so proud of my sons for being willing to sacrifice for their county and fellow man. We must not forget or let our troops down. We must remember to always support our troops, pray for them and their families.

i almost cried.
by jordan griffin
i was sitting on the bus this morning on the way to school, and this song came on the radio, and at the beginning i was just thinking 'oh, this is cute,' and i was kinda staring out the window. but i started actually listening to the lyrics about halfway through, and it was... way way cute. i started thinking about what all these families must be going through, and nobody really knows unless they have a daddy or a husband in the war. and by the end my nose was burning, and i was about ready to cry. i love this song.

The Real Reason
by Becky N, PG,Utah
When I first heard your song it made me cry. I hope everyone gets a chance to hear this wonderful song. It is the true meaning of, "The Reason for the Seaon." thank you so much for making my Holiday a little brighter!

navy wife and navy mom
by patti brock in alabama
I heard the song for the first time this morning. it really hit home.I am a wife of a retired navy chief and there have been times when my husband was out to sea for christmas. we had a small son at the time and your song reminded me of the time that all he wanted for christmas that year was his dad to come home or maybe hit a port and be able to call home. my husband was on a submarine at the time so there was no letters home or phone calls unless he hit a port. when my son was ten he got a little sister. and my husband retired. the son grew up and his sister thinks of him as a third parent. he inlisted in the navy and rides submarines just like his dad. This year for christmas all my daughter wants is to see her bubba. It has been a year since she was able to see him. She misses him so. She doesn't know it but her wish may come true. Shane is planning a trip home for the holiday. love to you all for touching my family with your song. loved it.. bless you

Bring him home!
by Lynn M.
God Bless the child that sang this song! My best friend has a son over there now and we pray for his safe return daily. I will send this beautiful song to her and I know Deb will cry her eyes out but she will bless this song as well. God bless all the troops over there trying to bring peace to the world. Merry Christmas! Lynn

NEVER STOP!
by Posha
This song means so much to so many. My family has served in the military every generation going back to the civil war, but I am unable to serve because of medical reasons. I have always regretted that, but tried to raise my children to love the military. My 15 yr. old daughter is determined to pick the torch up and enlist her junior year when she turns 17. She plans to do basic over the summer and AIT during a break Senior year. I could not be prouder. And some year I expect to sing this for her and that will be a comfort to us, you know. I have a friend to whom she is very close who is deploying in January for his 3rd tour. This song touches both of us deeply. We know that next year we will be singing this for him and his wife and sons. I have read all of the comments, the entire diary and will continue to read to see how the song grows, AND IT WILL GROW. Some people I have talked to misunderstood the meaning of the song and also thought it was anti-war, but having seen where the song came from, I was able to help them see that it was very supportive of the job out troops are doing and they love it even more, now. I played it for my daughters and husband, too. My son thinks it's sad the the little girl's daddy can't be home for Christmas. He remembers last month when we had to go to Illinois for a family reunion for Thanksgiving and his daddy had to stay in Oklahoma and work. He cried because he was so worried about his daddy being alone for the holiday and begged me to go get daddy for Thanksgiving, so he said that the little girl must be MORE sad with her daddy gone for CHRISTMAS. So please understand what you have all done. You bring much needed awareness, comfort and empathy to our friends, loved ones and soldiers. Never stop doing God's work and hug that little angel of your friend's. She is the voice of this little miracle and some day she'll understand that she did so much more than just sing a song one day. (I hope she gets to read all of this, too, the diary, comments, everything. Print it for her and store the copy away for when she's older.) THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! Posha G. Tulsa, OK

Very Touching!!
by Tiffany

Unbelievable
by Shannon
you have done something incredible with this song. I've missed Christmas with my father as a child of a the Army. And I've missed Christmas with my family while active my self. This song, WOW! It just speeks volumes of the hearts of children who have a parent (s) serving away from home. Thank you, and may God Bless you!

O MY
by Lyndsey
I wanted to thank you for creating and publishing this song for the world to hear. It's BEAUTIFUL and really hits home being a military wife, having our first anniversary with him being deployed! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. May God Bless Y'all in everywhere possible.

Prayer
by Melissa Monaghan
I have a sister and brother in law that have the chance at any time to be deployed and we are terrified. We are thankful that this year we can cherish our Christmas with them not knowing if we will be able to next year. We pray for all the troops and their families that they have left behind for all of us. I cry everytime I hear the song and thank God that we don't have to ask santa to bring them home this year. But pray that some child will get their wish and santa will bring their daddy and/or mommy home on his sleigh. Our thoughts and prayers are out to all. Love and thanks to you.

THANK YOU
by Corrina
Thank you! My best friend is was deploed to Ira in July HS e will not be home until October of 2008 at the earliest. Her daughter will celebrate Christmas without her and when I heard this song I cried my eyes out. Thank you for letting others know how children and families of the military feel. To all those serving our country THANK YOU!!!! Come home safe!

The Song and what it means to me...
by Milissa
I have a 7 year old daughter.. this is probably the last year I'm thinking she'll believe in Santa ...and when I heard this song I though, oh my heavens.. isn't it so true? She keeps saying she misses Daddy and why can't he come home.. (he left for Iraq in the middle of November for his 15 months) Thanks for making this song...and for sharing.....and letting me cry a little too...

Hits Home
by Stephanie
This song is a tear jerker. I cried when I heard it this morning. Anyone who has a loved one in the military can definitely relate to this song. My husband is in the Navy and was deployed overseas but is now home. Even though I maybe spending Christmas with him this year, in which I am very grateful, but I also think of all those other men and women who are still over there who will be spending Christmas without their "real families". It is very disheartening. This song needs to be played more on the radio and sent to everyone; friends and family of our US service persons. Happy Holidays to all and yes BRING THEM ALL HOME!!!!!!

POWERFULL
by C.R.GOLAY
WE OFTEN FORGET ABOUT OUR COUNTRIES CHILDREN IN A TIME OF CRISISS. WE OVERLOOK THAT THEY DONT UNDER STAND WHAT WAR IS. ALL THEY KNOW IS THAT THEIR DADDY OR MOMMY IS GONE, AND THEY DONT KNOW WHEN OR EVEN IS THEY WILL COME HOME.WE ALL KNOW HOW DIVORSE CAN BE ON A CHILD, BUT WHO CAN SAY WHAT GOES THROUGH A CHILDS MIND IF THEIR PARENT IS AT WAR. THIS SONG GIVES IT TO US. DONT FORGET WHAT THE CHILDREN OF OUR TROOPS ARE GOING THROUGH THIS TIME OF YEAR. OUR SOLDIERS NEED OUR SUPPORT AND SO DO THEIR FAMILIES!

Overflowing with Tears
by D. Gipson
I just heard this for the first time and I think it is great!!! My husband was in the US Navy and was gone for Christmas several times. Luckily his time was over before we had kids. I know how hard it was for me when he was gone...I can't imagine how it would be now that we have kids!! I just want to say Thank you to all the mililtary families that sacrifice what everyone else takes for granted!!!

Tears flowed
by LSWindorf
My Husband has served in the Air Force for 18 years & we have a 5 year old daughter. This song really hits home. We are lucky that Daddy will be home for Christmas this year. My Brother serves full time in the Army National Guard. He missed the birth of his 1st daughter due to a deployment to Iraq. We have recently learned that he will be leaving soon for a 2nd tour in Iraq and will miss the birth of his 2nd child. God Bless our troops and the families left behind to hold everything together!

Heard first time this morning.....
by Kim
My fiancee is in the Army and has been gone since July 23. He was originally scheduled to return Oct 2008 but he's been told that he could come home as early as July. We found out I was pregnant July 14. I cried like a baby this morning when I heard this song............and the first thing I did when I got to work was email him about it. I think it's awesome. Reminds everyone that the soldier's aren't the only ones who suffer when they are deployed.

Bring Him Home
by L. Caffrey
From the mother of a United States Marine this is a so very powerful song. Even though I am lucky enough to be having my Marine home for Christmas there are so many others that aren't. Until they all come home safely... Thank you so very much.
