Christmas Cheer


Christmas Day is coming soon
It won't be long 'til it's here.
People are busy shopping
And planning parties for New Year's.

Santa is sitting in the malls.
He's quite the merry, robust chap
And children of all ages clamor
To climb up in his lap.

People are shopping frantically
For just the perfect presents.
Full of joy their spirits soar;
You can feel the effervescence.

Tiny tots lay down their heads
And visions of candy canes abound.
Mom and Dad hang mistletoe
And sneak a kiss when no one's 'round!

People all over the world
Are praying for unity and peace;
Coming together in the Christmas Spirit
Brotherhood of mankind is what we need.

Christmas Day comes but once a year
It's a favorite time for one and all.
But let's not lose our focus
And forget the babe in a manger stall.

Let's remember whose birth we celebrate
When Christmas arrives this year.
Be sure and wish Jesus "Happy Birthday."
He's the reason for Christmas cheer!
