His Birthday

Do you have that Christmas feeling?
Can you smell it in the air?
All the folks you meet are smiling.
Happiness is everywhere.
We are all hiding presents
That our loved ones must not see
And no matter where we go there is
A shining Christmas tree.

It is the birthday party for
A Child of long ago.
Baby Jesus is the reason
That so many candles glow.
He came to bring us peace and joy
And goodwill everwhere.
In December we remember and
For a little while we care.
