The Birth of Christ

The Birth of Christ By Franklin Price 12/20/2015 The birth of Christ on Christmas day Is what we celebrate It still is something special Not just any other date Although we're empty nesters Home and tree we decorate Together with my lovely wife Who is my lifelong mate We gift our little family Communicate with friends See what new is happening With Christmas giving trends Even if we're not in church Before the season ends We thank God for his only son And make our year's amends For what we have we're grateful For all we thank the Lord He's not at fault for what we have We have what we can afford Could have worked a little harder Given others somewhat less Like the reflection in the mirror More than pleased I must confess Be satisfied with what you have Work honestly for more Give to others when you can While never keeping score May your life be always happy May your health be always good May you thank the Lord at Christmas If you do not I think you should
