Lord, Thank You

Lord, thank you for Christmas
And forgotten friends who call
To remind us
We were once useful, after all.
Lord, thank you for friendships, and
Memories of good deeds done
That binds us
On the fragile edge of the sun.
Lord, thank you for our memory's
Landscape of love
And flowers we name at sight
And their fragrance in our hearts
Lord, thank you for Christmas
Whatever day you came
To interchange your joy and place
With my unworthy race.

very nice, i especially like the end part that says whatever day you came. people tends to be too caught up and and do not have ythe answer with what day he came, instead of concentating on the fact that he came. love it very nice
