Ramona Thompson- A Poem

Keeping The Christ

It's his day
Day of his birth
So why are we so selfish?
Why won't we share?
When did it all become about us?
Instead of what he did for us
On the cross
Gave his all
Yet we can't give him
This one simple thing

What's gone wrong here?
When did we forget?
When did we turn our backs?
It's all not just about
The presents and the food
It's about him
Those who deny this
Well I feel sorry for them
Denying their lord and maker
Just maybe going to Hell

If you don't love him now
During his special time of the year
You've got no right
To praise him any other time
Cause the Lord and everyone knows
You don't really mean it
So why don't you just quit?
Trying to sell it
Unbeliever all year long
You're oh so wrong
And you know it

So jingle those bells
Kiss under those mistletoes
But nothing's gonna change the facts
We're at war here
Between greed and the truth
At the end on which side will you be standing?
I don't know about you
But this year I'll be keeping the Christ
Keeping the Christ in Christmas!
