Notes About The Poem

The Christmas Story

The Christmas Story
The Christmas story we were taught so well And it’s a story that we love to tell Tales of sweet angels who excitedly Permeate sky with song beautifully. On the unforgettable holy night The star of Bethlehem was shining bright Gleaming o’er the place of Jesus Christ’s birth Born to save the souls of people on earth. Will the light shine for us this Christmas Day Will the darkness finally fade away Earth’s in unrest that’s gone beyond control Lord we implore you to save all lost souls. The world is in need of peace for healing From the anguish it's people are feeling May this Christmas abolish all hatred With hearts filled with love we will achieve it. We must find the will inside to survive It's love and trust that will light up our lives Born for us, Jesus died for our sakes too A gift from God above to me and you. Life’s become harder for some of us all Gone are joyous days when life was a ball Despondence just keeps on coming our way Pray that changes because of Christmas Day. +*+*+ 25th December 2022

I, also, hope that everyone found some joy on Christmas. I think last night on the news that 49 people have died because of the weather which brings sadness to many for this Christmas and all their Christmases to come. Thanks for sharing this one and for dropping by my page. Sara
