CHRISTMAS IS . . .

Christmas is a time of love,

A time of joy and cheer.

Christmas is a peaceful time,

That wondrous time of year.

A time of faith, a time of hope,

Of friendships much more true;

Christmas is a joyous time

When love shall come to you.

Christmas is a little child.

It's tinsel shining bright,

Frosted windows, snowy lanes,

Candles in the night.

It's Santa Claus and dreams come true,

So much that gladness sees;

It's holly wreaths and silver bells

And star-tipped Christmas trees.

Christmas is a place called home...

A door thrown open wide;

A crackling fire all aglow

And loving hearts inside.

It's happy faces, shining eyes,

Soft music in the air;

It's tissue, ribbon, cards to write

And secrets everywhere.

Christmas is a lighted church...

The very nicest part,

Believing in a special way

A prayer that fills your heart.

It's friendliness so much more real,

A blessing from above;

Christmas is the special time

We greet the folks we love.
