Is Christmas ‘bout celebrations?
Its joy… result from gifts?
Or is it just remembrance of
A birth that caused some sifts?
Is Christmas just about me
My family, my kids, my life?
Or should I look beyond myself
And labour to end strife?
Does Christmas happen once a year,
Then after hides its shine?
Or is it source for life that keeps
Brightening your heart and mine?
The Christmas message is so clear
God's humbled self in human life;
His Love in Babe to change the World
Bring justice… goodwill in rife.
Christmas is a life by choice
A delicate heart that's pure;
A helping hand that reach beyond
The broken hearts to cure.
This Christmas let us look within
To find the self that takes;
Replace it with God's humble heart
That heals the many aches.
