Christina .... Christina .... Christina .... Christina ....
VERSE 1
A sweet, petite blue eyed girl .... and I know I'm her biggest fan, sir
Joyful and happy until the day .... the Doctor said it's childhood cancer
the diagnosis knocked her off her track .... but She toughened up and fought it back
beat the demon with family and prayer .... and her inner strength, was the answer
Christina .... Christina .... Christina .... Christina ....
VERSE 2
Then 2 years of sweet remission .... cancer came back with stronger fission
She fought again, a greatful win .... a Knock Out blow, not a decision
This beautiful girl is now all grown up .... and the cancer demon has not shown up
She's getting to live a normal life .... and she's enjoying her life's ambitions
Christina .... Christina .... Christina .... Christina ....
Just like MacIver .... She's a survivor ....
