CHRISTMAS...

Can you think of Christmas

Without a song or a gift to give in His Name?

Or without joy or peace of heart to share,

As we celebrate again?

Can another year with it's Christmas cheer

But remind us that Jesus died?

And the cradle there is empty,

Indeed, unless He was crucified.

Can wise men from here, or anywhere -

From east or west or south,

But worship the One who, born to die,

Is risen and forever lives!

At Christmastime

I say to myself at Christmastime

my soul shall rejoice and in Him abide.

He who has wrought Salvation's plan

has kept our lives in His loving Hands.

I thank You for Good things this Coming Year

You watch over us and those who are dear.

Comfort at Christmas

You cherish me Father and those who are near

You watch over us and those who are dear.

Resting in Your Love and Grace

brings Peace and Joy and a sure Solace.

We have given our cares to You

bless us this Season and next year too.

Thoughts at Christmas

I sing songs to You all the day long

this time of the year I feel good cheer.

There is something about Christmastime

it helps me bring my thoughts into line.

Making plans for the year ahead

big or small with You to bless.

I think of some things that have been achieved

all things are possible to those who believe.

Our Mum's Christmas Joy

Our Mum went to Jesus on Christmas Eve

it was the very best Gift she ever received.

Ninety One, her Race is Run

her spirit left in the morning sun.

Her favorite songs playing by her bed

when up to Heaven she was led.

Her face was soft and peaceful, she glowed

faithful to Jesus, blessings bestowed.

We rejoiced with her the day before

that she was going to those Heavenly shores.

We will see her again one day

the Son of God, He paved the way

For all who love Him and worship Him

to be reunited, our hearts will sing.

A Christmas Prayer

Loving Father, help us to remember the birth

of Jesus, that we may share in the song of the angels,

the gladness of the shepherds,

and the worship of the wise men.

Close the door of hate and

open the door of love all over the world.

Let kindness come with every gift and

good desires with every greeting.

Deliver us from evil by the blessing

which Christ brings, and teach us to

be merry with clear hearts.

May the Christmas morning make us happy

to be Your children, and the Christmas evening

bring us to our beds with grateful thoughts,

forgiving and forgiven, for Jesus' sake. Amen!

Christmas In Heaven

I see the countless Christmas trees around the world below

with tiny lights like heaven's stars reflecting on the snow.

The sight is so spectacular please wipe away that tear

for I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

I hear the many Christmas songs that people hold so dear

but the sounds of music can't compare

with the Christmas choir up here.

I have no words to tell you of the joy their voices bring

for it is beyond description to hear the angels sing.

I know how much you miss me, I see the pain inside your heart

for I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

I can't tell you of the splendor or the peace here in this place

Can you just imagine Christmas with our Savior face to face?

I'll ask him to lift your spirit as I tell you of your love

so then pray for one another as you lift your eyes above.

Please let your hearts be joyful and let your spirit sing

for I am spending Christmas in heaven

and I'm walking with the King.

The First Gift of Christmas

The first Christmas gift ever given

Wasn't bought in a mart or a shop,

And it wasn't encased in pretty wrappings

With a bright ribbon bow on the top.

The first Gift of Christmas was given

In a manger lowly and bare,

And a blanket was the lone wrapping

Of this gift so priceless and fair.

God gave the First Gift of Christmas,

A most Holy and Wonderful One,

When He looked down in mercy and goodness

And gave us the Gift of His Son!

At Christmas

Christmas is a time for giving,

A time for love and joyous living,

For glistening splendor and lots of laughter,

Making happy memories forever after.

But with all the glitter, fun and mirth,

Let's not forget the Christ Child's birth.

And the peace that was meant to be.

Dear Lord, let it begin with me,

And may it spread throughout the earth

In celebration of our Savior's birth.

A Beautiful Saviour

There is a savior called Jesus

who came to save us from sin

His character and demeanor shines

to all that wish to invite Him in

This Christ came into this world

displaying such a humility of heart

such gracious tones of holiness

showing what He will impart

Giving His own to be made anew

imparting on them His qualities sublime

this God-Man so full of love

being one not bound by time

This savior's person so unique

no other can we compare

to such a one as this Christ

shows such beauty so rare

We bow now before this Immanuel

whom we owe eternal praise

for He died that we will live

to follow Him for everlasting days.
