Ted Stilson - I have been playing music now for 35 years. I started when I was 12. Music has always been an escape for me from the trials and tribulations of everyday life. In the past few years I have been trying my hand at writing.

Lyrics
Tommy’s Gift A young man sits in solitude, around an empty tree His thoughts begin to echo around the emptiness he sees He has a son named Tommy, He is only five When he looks up to his daddy, you see the love that’s in his eyes Tomorrow it is Christmas But for Tommy there is none ‘Cause his daddy’s not been workin’ And the money…..There is none As the emptiness surrounds him, his eyes fill with tears He hopes his little Tommy can forgive him for this year Tommy he is upstairs, he lays awake in bed He knows his daddy’s cryin’ so he lifts up his head He looks up to Jesus, then calls his name aloud He said please help my daddy He needs you so right now Tomorrow it is Christmas But for Tommy There is none ‘Cause his daddy’s not been workin’ And the money…..There is none When Christmas morning came that day, Tommy went downstairs He saw the empty tree down there and watched his daddy stare As he looked into his daddy’s face he watched the tears drops fall Then he said through his loving eyes Dad I love you most of all Today it is Christmas But for Tommy there is none ‘Cause his daddy’s not been workin’ And the money…..There is none Then Tommy told the story, about when his mommy died How he learned of Jesus Christ the King from his neighbor Mrs. White He said daddy if you need him just call his name out loud I know my Jesus loves you and I know he’ll want to help His daddy fell down on his knees, and gave his life to God Then Tommy said Thank you dad for the best gift of all Today it is Christmas And for Tommy the best of all “Cause his daddy’s full of love again “Cause Jesus heard their call Yes today it is Christmas And for Tommy the Best of all “Cause his daddy’s full of love again 'Cause Jesus....Heard their call
