Christmas is about Jesus

     Let's take back Christmas! It's not "Happy Holidays"; it's "Merry Christmas!" It's not all about St. Nick; it's about Jesus! The magic of the season was brought about by the birth of a King; the birth of a baby laid in a manager, and the wise men who brought gifts from afar. As the song goes, "Oh, come let us adore Him. Oh, come let us adore Him. Christ the Lord!"

 Christmas Is About Jesus

 

Christmas is drawing nigh;

All is jolly with halls decked in holly-

It's a wonderful time of the year!

There are songs of Jingle Bells and Silver Bells;

Families laughing, hugging, drawing near;

Ginger bread houses with cinnamon smells.

 

What a wonderful time of the year!

There are children giggling with glee;

Santa flying 'cross the hemisphere;

Ornaments on the tree.

Christmas is drawing nigh.

 

Sleigh bells ringing and people singing-

It’s a wonderful time of the year!

There are wrappings with ribbon and bows;

Smiles and Christmas cheer;

Stories of Rudolph with his bright, red nose.

 

What a wonderful time of the year!

There’s hope, peace, and goodwill;

A baby born with love to share;

A Savior come; a promise to fill.

 

Trees are adorned celebrating the Lord is born-

It’s a wonderful time of the year!

There are stories of wise men traveling afar;

Shepherds in the field on a night, so clear.

Shining bright, is a northern star.

 

Christmas is drawing nigh!

Not a time to let joy pass on by.

“Fa la la, la la la, la” –

More than gifts to give, my Jesus lives!
