Thoughts On Christmas Day... Poem by Dr John Celes

But Jesus came just to redeem sinners;
And not for those righteous in the lord always;
He brought his joy and peace to those who need,
To comfort, heal the sick, suffering, dying.

Let’s think of those who can’t enjoy this day;
Let’s share our joy with those who can’t afford;
Let’s say a word of kindness to those old;
Are there not people living all alone?

Let’s visit sick in hospitals and jails;
Let’s distribute good food to those without;
Let’s gift the orphans new dresses and things;
Let’s sing a Christmas song and dance to tune.

Are there not elderly and destitute?
Are there not children living in the streets?
Are there not souls in darkness, depression?
Let’s gladden hearts and brighten up faces!
