A GIFT OF JOY

WELL IT'S THAT TIME OF YEAR
TO BE FILLED WITH HOLIDAY CHEAR
AND MAYBE EVEN REMEMBER OR MOURN
THE LOVED ONES THAT ARE NO LONGER HERE
TO SEE THE STREETS DECORATED
WITH ORNAMENTS AND LIGHTS
AS OUR ARMED FORCES ARE STILL OVER SEAS
FIGHTING FOR PEOPLES LIBERTIES AND RIGHTS
THE STORES ARE FILLED WITH SHOPPERS
PREPARING FOR THEIR HOLIDAY FEAST
AS THE SOUP LINES PREPARE THE SHELTERS
TO FEED THE HOMELESS AT LEAST
SO REMEMBER IF YOU DON'T RECEIVE THAT SPECIAL GIFT UNDER THE TREE
CHRISTMAS IS ABOUT CHRIST
HE WAS BORN FOR YOU AND ME
CHRIST WAS BORN TO BRING PEACE AND LOVE
AND ON THIS DAY WE CELEBRATE HIS BIRTH
IT'S A GIFT THAT IS COMPLETELY FREE
A GIFT OF JOY FOR ALL THE EARTH
