Hang Them Poem by margaret haig

Hang Them



Hang the holly on the Christmas tree,
And think the holly bearing a thistle for me;
Reminding of Christ and why He was born,
Came as a young King, that first Christmas morn.

Hang the Star near the top of the manger scene,
As you do, think of where the star had been;
Shining high in the sky, for the shepherds to see,
And there also the Angels singing the message so sweetly.

Place the gifts for all, under the christmas tree,
As they are placed, think of the Gifts to Jesus and Mary;
Brought to them by the wise men, that was foretold,
Bearing gifts, of myrrh, frankincense, and also gold.

Place a Candle there on the table beside the tree,
And as you do, think that Christ who came for you and me;
Christ was the light of the world shining in a darkened world of sin,
Showing He was the way, the truth and the light, changing one within.

Place the manger scene near the Christmas tree,
To make us think of the family who found no room you see;
Only a poor stable with a manger to lay Christ in,
Born of a humble birth, To teach, the humble can be clean within.
