Christmas Thanks
Hanging the baubles
Hanging the bows
Hanging the balls
And mistletoes
Adorning the home front
With symbols of joy
Brings excitement to faces
Of each girl and boy
For they all know soon
That Santa appears
Just as he’s done before
Year after year
But as they get older
Their smiles e’er remain
Even though their belief
Has gone down the drain
I guess it’s the season
This true reason for peace
Is why they all smile
With kindness released
Their now giving hearts
Were trained to so give
By the goodness of Santa
And the true King that lived
It may quickly come
And too quickly pass
But the joy remains strong
With Christ in Christmas
So for each Christmas Tree
With a new “holiday” name
Remember the true reason
To keep the season the same
All filled with kindness
In the season to forgive
Give thanks to the child
That taught how to live
