Christmas Spirit
Christmas Spirit
Let’s try and spread some joy, like the birds do in the spring.
God loves to see his children, dancing while they sing.
Live life to the fullest, why bother spreading grief.
Our time is awfully short, that’s fact and not belief.
There is evil in this world, that can give us all a frown.
Don’t forget there’s also good, it’s literally all around.
When you wake up in the morning and feel that sunshine on your face.
Remember the kids are watching, so make their world a better place.
If you’re saddened by the news or our taxes on the rise.
We all can get quite crabby, that is no big surprise.
Take a look around, is there a roof above your head?
Do you have food on your table, can you sleep in a warm bed?
Think of those right now that are homeless in the street.
Maybe a child with cancer, feeling their last heartbeat.
Be grateful for what you have, share the fruit that’s on your vine.
Partake in the spirit of Christmas, none of us have much time.
