Christmas

While Shepherds watched their flocks by night
They saw a bright new star
Of angels singing 'Silent Night'
And kings who came from afar
Christmas did awake
To salute that happy morn
With Rudolph the red nosed reindeer
and sleigh bells in the snow.
Joy to the world and peace to all the earth.

Silver bells and Santa Claus
And candles all aglow
Lest we forget the dark dark nights
of those who haven't seen the light
Do spare a thought to show you care
And light a candle. 
Plan to share a little love, a little prayer.

To the needy to the one's in despair.
For of all the thoughts and feelings of Christmas
There is none greater than love and understanding
for a fellow man.

So eat your cake and kul kuls too 
Decorate with holly and candles
Remember with kindness those many too
who aren't so fortunate or loved-like you.
