If Christmas Is

IF CHRISTMAS IS

If Christmas is for the children,
Then why can't we all see,
That in the eyes of GOD the Father,
HIS children are you and me?

And if Christmas is all about giving,
Why don't we spread the cheer,
By giving every day of each month,
And not just this time of year?

If Christmas is about family,
Then why do we argue with them so?
Can't we all just get along,
And share the love we know?

If Christmas is about sharing,
The way GOD shared HIS SON,
Then let us honor HIM by accepting,
And share HIM with everyone!
