A CHRISTMAS thought
Many, many years ago
East of here or west of there
Ringing bells announced to them
Royalty was born in Bethlehem
Young and old, their sins He’d bear
Christ was born on this day
Hatred be gone, for this I pray
Restful peace filled with lasting joy
In loving company may you enjoy
Share your joy, hold out your hand
To every race and in every land
May this day bring you joy to last
Almighty Lord forgive our past
Sweet Jesus, upon us Thy love cast.

Christmas cheer
Merry days and spirits high
Love unbound across the sky
Season’s greetings and joyful thought
Purity of life to all be brought
Most have all to be thankful for
Never know the dismay of a closed door
Do we stop to consider or give a though
To the joys that life to us has brought
A child gone, a mother’s heart lost
A soul mate not there, death a heavy cost
An ailing soul that torment knows
The pain within them forever grows
Son has gone to land afar
To protect us all and danger bar
May they too feel the season’s cheer
May enemy filled with love the war clear
To those that have lost someone close
My heart to you with love it goes
Be it father, mother, son or lover
May you now from the pain recover
Join as one in Christmas cheer
Join with us the departed so dear
May life to all be perfectly whole
Bringing love and joy to your very soul
Merry Christmas
