We buy and buy
We give and give
Give to the ones we know
Give to the ones who give us
Give to the ones we love
Within our own circle who know us.
But Christmas is also giving
To those who are unknown
To those whose names are hidden
And only called by numbers
To those who have lost their names
To those who have lost everything
To those who have nothing.
Jesus in the manger was not born in a palace
But in a most humble place of the lowly on earth
The Three Kings travelled to find him
And gave him the gifts from their hearts
May we find the humble Jesus among the
forgotten, the poor, the marginalized,
the rejected, the refugees, the victims
as subject of our gifts of love on Christmas.
