Today Is Christmas

Today is Christmas! A day set aside By Christian authorities To celebrate the birth Of someone special Whose coming was foretold By the prophet of old To lead to the rising And falling of many in Israel A heavenly king in form Of a human child born of Virgin Mary in lowly town of Bethlehem of Judea And in keeping with his mission He went up disgracefully to the Cross crucified and was buried And rose up on the third day Ascended into heaven and now Seated at the right side of his father Who sent him on the mission To redeem the world and bring Back all his father’s creation Into his heavenly kingdom Christmas is time for appreciation to God For giving us His most precious possession Giving is the basis of His birth God gave us His best at Christmas We need to give Him our best We celebrate Jesus of story We celebrate Jesus of history Above all we celebrate Jesus revealed by Holy Spirit Merry Christmas!
