My Christmas Poem

There are times when we are so busy

That we forget the most important thing

That we’re celebrating this special time

The birth of our Savior and King.

 

 

even though this isn't the exact date

this is the time we set aside

To give glory to God for the birth of Jesus

And the true life his life and death supplied.

 

 

From Heaven up above he came

To do the father’s will

To save a wretched child like me

A calling only He could fulfill.

 

 

Even though it happened long ago

Its meaning today still rings true

But there’s another reason

That we’ve become accustom to.

 

 

We don’t take this time to reflect

On Jesus, The Lord of Lords

Our eyes are on the pride of life

To which we buy things we can’t afford.

 

 

Deeper and deeper in debt we sink

Trying to please man with destructible things

Trying to fill an insatiable appetite

That only Jesus, the giver of life, can bring.

 

 

But we don’t seem to realize

Or even seem to share

That this time of year we celebrate

And make the gospel of Jesus Christ to everyone aware.

 

 

It's time that our focus be put back on the King of Kings

Enough of this man Santa, of whom I have nothing against

But He didn't rise up from death; the grave is where he stayed

So please take no offense.

 

 

Nicholas Klaus was a good man, I'll agree to that

He did a lot of good and righteous things

But he didn't did on a cross for me

And he certainly didn't wash away all my sins.

 

 

I serve a risen Savior

That all the world should know of

I serve the God who created this St. Nicholas

who, by the way, just obeyed God above.

 

 

He did the thing that we should do every single day

He loved his God first with all his heart, and all his neighbors too

He thought of himself last

Isn't that the very thing that we all should do.

 

 

The world is always trying to take God out of everything

Well God created everything and He was here first

How can we, as HIS creation, continue to praise his creations

Instead of HIM, our creator, and not be cursed?
