Religious Christmas Card Idea

In a manger He lay
In this world full of sin
The purveyor of peace
The Son of all man

From the womb of a virgin 
Came forth the light
Which guided the shepherds
To the miraculous sight

Gifts from the wise
Fit for a King
From meager beginnings
To omniscient being

For swaddled in cloth
In a manger that night
Came the gift to the world 
Of eternal life

He shed of His blood
For the sin of all man
So with Him we'll walk
When He comes again

So remember this season
And what it's about
Go forth with His light
May it never burn out
