Christmas Cheer = A Wonderful Year

Christmas.
A time to draw near to family and friends.
And the celebration never truly ends.
Lights are seen inside and out.
People run from store to store, from house to house, from party to party.
But what is Christmas really about?
Is it about a man who brings presents to only those who are nice?
OR is it about the baby boy whose birth brought us peace!?
We hear the carols and sing along, 
but have you ever thought about that night described in every Christmas song?
Have you seen what the wind saw, have you heard what the little lamb heard? 
A song high above the trees, angels in the sky singing praises to the little King..
do you know what you sing?
Do you know what the little shepherd knows?  
Do you know this little child shivering in the cold? 
Have you given him a gift of silver or of gold? 
Have you prepared him room in your heart?
If so then,
 Say what the King said to all the people everywhere. 
Pray for peace, people everywhere! Listen to what I say
The Child, the Chid, sleeping in the night
He will bring us goodness and light
He will bring us goodness and light.
Goodness and light, that shines SO bright that the night is no longer night, 
but it is indeed a beautiful sight!
So sing with a full heart.
Sing each song with joy and peace.
And draw closer to the little king who
brought grace and who will never depart.
So do not move away, but instead
Love Him a little more and Know him a little better each and every day.
Don't let the Christmas cheer end here.
Just as Buddy the elf said,"Treat Every Day Like Christmas!"
Oh, if we did that, 2015 would be a wonderful year!
