Christmas

The selfishness of mankind, the excuses he makes to use
the time of Christmas as an end to his own needs.
He could do more for his fellow man.
Does it only have to be at Christmas that he thinks,
To bring….. PEACE TO THE WORLD?

 “ CHRISTMAS ”

Christmas! What is Christmas?
The time mankind will stop to think of his family.
the time of togetherness, thoughts of his fellow man.
It is a time when man feels generous…
A hand goes into his pocket.
After all it’s Christmas!

Christmas! What is Christmas?
Stop to think about another Christmas,
the first Christmas, when Joseph and Mary
were turned away.
No one wanted to give up their
room for the night!

COULD IT BE…it’s Christmas?

 

Christmas! What is Christmas?
A time when nations link across the
countless miles to greet one and another.
When church bells chime on this special day
Children wake early…excited….
what is there for ME!… they shout.
After all it’s Christmas

Christmas! What is Christmas?
Think again about the first Christmas
When an Inn-Keeper took pity on a
Mother-to-be, and offered a stable…
Then shepherds offered a lamb to
The Lamb of God!
When three wise men offered special gifts to the King of Kings!

So… what can you offer? an outstretched hand?
A friendly smile…… a place at your table?
PEACE TO THE WORLD…
After all, it’s Christmas
