Christmas Gifts That Keep On Giving

We buy gifts for everyone,
For friends, family, daughters, and son's,
Some gifts expensive, others so cheap,
Remembering you sow what you reap,
Everyone on our list gets that special something,
A tie, a comb, cuff-links, or a ring,
Yet there's one person we forget all about,
You don't give HIM a gift, can you figure it out,
It is HIS birthday after all,
The LORD Jesus that we profess to Love,
HE is Alpha and Omega, Aleph and Tov,
What gift can you give to Jesus our Savior?,
Perhaps corrections in our behavior,
Showing loving kindness at this time of year,
Sharing and caring without any fear,
Forgiving and loving the ones we have hurt,
The ones we have wounded and treated like dirt,
To love the unloved showing them kindness,
Shows Jesus in you, the gift that's timeless.
