Christmas Rewind
Tis the season for shopping,
Cookies, and cocoa too.
Christmas is on its way
And there’s still much to do!
In the midst of this season
Let us all not forget
That Christmas is more than
what you give or what you get.
Let me tell you the story,
Let the history rewind
As we go back in time
For a Christmas divine.
In the small town of Nazareth
Was a virgin named Mary
And this beautiful young
Lady was pledged to be married.
One day in the garden,
Mary went for a walk
When the angel Gabriel
Came down for a talk.
He said “Greetings, dear child,
God holds you quite dear.” At this,
Mary fell to her knees in great fear.
“You’ll have a son and
Jesus shall be his name.
To save all men is why
He came.”
The young virgin answered
“The Lord has blessed thee
And whatever He wants
He can have of me.”
Now during this time
There was a census decree
So Mary and Joseph left their
Home near Galilee.
On to Bethlehem
They rode all night.
At the local Inn there
Was no room in sight.
While staying in the stables,
Baby Jesus was born
In the wee early hours
Of Christmas morn.
Shepherds and Kings
Came to worship this sight,
Following the star above them
That was shining so bright.
So, as we celebrate Christmas
With trees all alight,
Let us remember this child
Who gave up his life!
Cookies, and cocoa too.
