What Christmas means to me


What Christmas means to me is to feel
the rhythm of life returning to an even keel.

The joy and thrill of looking on baby Jesus I renew
King of kings was born in a stable, not a palace new.
Some high emotion makes me breathless, and tremble
at the Nativity where three wise men did assemble.

How fortunate were they to be led by a star
While angels spread the news to corners far.
Eternal Christmas brings to me year after year
renewed faith in humanity, to live without fear.

The church bells on joyous Christmas ring in
the message of love and mercy, wiping away sin.
I recall the wondrous life of my Lord Jesus, the Christ
who gave His life for mankind’s sake, He is the finest.

Friends and neighbors meet for the midnight mass,
greetings, blessings and gifts en masse.
The choir in the humble church sings hallelujah
and a toast in the name of the only messiah.
