“That
time of the year when happiness beckons and hope springs
To embrace our troubled souls,
longing for a warmth feeling;
A chance we get to start afresh and
spread our wings,
And revive our lost faith to break
the glass ceiling.
A magical night looms large
amidst the fallen times,
Sharing this joy with our loved ones
will garner His blessings forever;
A time to chant the Christmas carols
with the same fervor of the nursery rhymes,
And welcome our savior by joining
hands in prayer together.
Yet the true spirit of Christmas is
unwittingly lost somewhere
To the sumptuous preparations and
lavish offerings on hand;
A life filled with worldly
temptations and sinful desires take us nowhere,
Unless we learn to forgive and can
perceive the world in a grain of sand.
Oh brethren!! Open up your
hearts and let His love set you free,
For it is foolish to confine
Christmas to the gifts of the fir tree.”
