A Gift for the World
By Lisa Noe

The spirit of Christmas, lives in us all
We need to come together, do you here my call.
In you there is a spirit that dwells
It’s worth more than anything that sells.

Presents and gifts are kind when you give
But I’ve got a present that’ll make you live.
Many people look to the Lord ,
But you never worry your words are your sword.

A turkey dinner, with all of the frills
Is plenty enough to give some thrills.
Children playing with toys so new
This is not the time to be blue.

I say Merry Christmas to one and all
Listen to me and hear my call.
I’ll bring a special gift for you
Your homeless and in the cold with the flu.

So a shelter with heat shall I provide
A good safe place for you to hide.
I understand why you need to be here
It’s better than the hell which brought you here.

A foster child who's lost his way
He knows not how to pray.
No one has taught him about love
He’s only known how to fight, push and shove.

Will God remember the people who are lost
And help them find their way, at any cost.
Teach them to love, that’s the gift I wish.
Let them know they have a brother and sis.

We all look for the lining so silver
Because sometimes the truth makes us shiver.
I don’t know why, it’s the way of the world.
Just as a millstone he has hurled.

So far he has tarried and given us a break
But we do not listen you might say we forsake.
We destroy the gift that God has bestowed
The world is his finest and most perfect show.

He wants us to protect it, not tear it apart.
It’s been with Humanity before the start.
When it is gone so are we
Can’t you see it’s an emergency!
