Putting Christ Back Into Christmas

Let's put CHRIST back into Christmas and steer towards the season without fear  
with no distraction of any kind to take us away from the LOVE gift he proposed 
Superfluous  gifts with money tags are of no use this year so we better adhere 
to the treasure of His birth, a birth that was so dear that even the camel posed 

Lets cook good food, gather our children to our bosom  and give them hope 
light your candles, use your best china,  tomorrow is only a promised wind 
Laugh at yourself a little,  God knows you need it, its a great way to cope 
be as kind as you can be, use your empathy for those who's hearts rescind

Bring the tinsel to your front window show the world that you are a believer 
Christ was the light of the world and still is today, he was never a deceiver 
Send Christmas cards in abundance this year, and open your heart to LOVE
it is the only gift worth giving and receiving, ...for its a one size fitted glove 

Let's put the CHRIST back into Christmas and remember our parents rule,  
if you don't realize by now its not about the gifts, then go back to school. 

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE 
LETS SALUTE THE HOLY SON..

Sadly like you pointed out P.D Christmas is or was supposed to be a religious holiday But seems to have been hijacked and turned into a retail shopping event
