Never will I forget the day he was born
starlight glittering on Christ laying bare
he came to a cruel world, its love was torn
hatred and ignorance everywhere
he grew up to make his father proud
taught people how to believe and love
his long white robe, white as a cloud
a walking symbol of peace , such as a dove
tormented and shamed for spreading the word
yet Gods word he carried on
his words meaningful, the best ever heard
golden as true, sparkling as dawn
I wonder now this Christmas day
who really knows what it is about
still today greed slips the meaning away
yet I love him without a doubt
remember the true spirit of Christmas
don't forget the first five letters CHRISTmas
