Reason of Christmas
Christmas is a time
Of joy and of cheer
When family, shopping, and presents
Give way to the New Year.
From Santa to elves,
From decorations to snow,
Holiday cheer is spread
Wherever we go.
But something is missing,
Something many don’t know.
Christmas is more than just songs
And lights all a-glow.
The subject of Christmas,
Written in the name,
Is more than dazzling gifts,
More than Christmas displays.
‘Twas a little baby born
In a lowly cattle stall,
To save mankind from his sin
And bring peace to us all.
So the real meaning of Christmas
Is not about toys,
About lights, snow, bells,
Gifts, music, or noise.
Christ is the reason
Joy and love are a part
Of the feeling we get
When Christmas season starts.
Christmas started with love
So many years ago,
When God gave his life
For those He loved most.
