Putting Christ Into Christmas

 












'Twas the night before Christmas,
The eve of Christ’s birth;
Many people were resting all over the earth.

The Shepherds were watching their sheep in the night,
When all of a Sudden they saw a bright light

And what to their wondering eyes should appear,
But a beautiful Angel, high up in the air

His face was all shining; his garment so bright,
That shepherds began to tremble with fright.

But as he came nearer, the words that he said,
Soon gave them to know there was nothing to dread.

He told them of “Peace,” with no fear or danger,
For their Wonderful Gift they would find in a manger.

So leaving their sheep they went into town,
To seek for this Gift, they would look all around.

They came to the stable, the covers they lift,
And there in the Manger, God’s wonderful Gift.

So pure and so holy, so full of God’s love,
They knew it was Jesus, God’s Gift from above.

And so as we think of this Savior again,
May our worship this Christmas not be in vain

Let us love Him and trust Him; there’s none that’s too small;
May the Lord richly bless you.  Merry Christmas to all!
