Christmas is more than a gift or a pretty lighted tree.
Its about Jesus Christ, the Messiah, who died for you and me.
He came to earth as a baby so sweet
with tiny arms and little feet
he loved the world, and was as perfect as could be
no one could ever compare, not you and not me
He was persecuted and misjudged
but his faith, he would not budge
He spread the word of god as far as he could go
I'm sure if id have met him, i would truly know
But someone somewhere said "This Jesus is a fraud"
They sent him to be crucified, and he cried out to God:
"Forgive your children, for they know not what they do."
And Jesus went to Heaven, bidding his a due.
So this Christmas I'm suggesting, you finally get a clue
Christmas really is about Jesus, Who died for me and you

Christmas is more than a gift or a pretty lighted tree.
Its about Jesus Christ, the Messiah, who died for you and me.

I agree with daviscth because it's true that people these days get too greedy on Christmas and think that presents mean more. Good job, Dawn!

I think you send a perfect message for us. We tend to get caught up in the excitement and forget the true meaning of this holiday. Thanks for taking part in my contest.
