The snow sprinkles down as I stare up in thought
My thoughts soaring into the day I just went through
Christmas the one holiday we wait for every year
Yet its gone in a flash
We spend more than a month preparing
For what seems to be the most over thought holiday
We give gifts of food and toys but for what reason?
We decorate and prepare all for one day
The gift that started it all is forgotten among the tinsel and presents
Alas, it was lost but not yet forgotten.
For the King to rule them all was born humbly in a small cave
As angels sung high above of his prophesy and grace
And shepherds awakened a town for worship on high
Great men from far away journeyed to that land
To but lay eyes on Him the Savior of all men.
I think about this tale and how it rings true.
How he was born to die and born to save all on that Christmas day.
I smile as I think of all He did for me
A king of men sought to destroy the Son of God
"We seek to do the same,"
I whispered with a tear,
"For we try to forget His name to shove it away without a second thought."
"This day I won't forget,
His name I shall not shame!"
"He did so much for me
Why can't I do the same?"
