Christmas Winter Wonder
Oh Christmas comes yet once a year,
Full with joy
Packed with Cheer
A child’s new shiny toy
Yon Virgin’s new boy
For Him now mankind may enjoy.
But a world bitter unkind,
Days promise split asunder
Poor and tired only find
Just another cold bed of hunger
Cold rain’s lightning and un-humbled thunder
Unanswered prayers mournful number.
A sacred promise made is it not so very clear,
Renewed blessings are for all more than just once a year.
