Christians
On this night before Christmas
As I sit here alone
Thinking of Jesus
And all at his throne
I bow my head silently
And pray just to you
Lord Jesus your help
Is needed it is true.
There are people who think
Our Faith is not true
And want me to stop
Believing in you.
They push and they shove
Their beliefs down on us
Making laws that remove you
From schools and such
They say there is no place
For you in this world
And if we believe
Then we have all been fooled
They have made it illegal
To say even your name
In schools, at work
Or even a game.
The faith of all others
Is fine they have said
But Christian Religion
They want to be dead.
This country was built
On Christian belief
And most arrived here
To get some relief
So now it is said
That saying your name
Offends those that don’t
Believe in the same.
Your life you have spent
Delivering this word
Will not go unnoticed
Even if they could
You died on the cross
You died for our sins
We’ll stand up for you Jesus
It’s time to begin
As Christians we’ll unite
We know what to do
We’ll stand ready to fight
To believe in you
We won’t be ashamed
We won’t hide your name
This Christian belief
Is not just a game
Lord Jesus the strength
We know comes from you
And proudly we stand
For we know you are true.
Amen
