The Gift
What can I give Him,
Poor as I am?
If I were a shepherd
I would bring a lamb,
If I were a Wise Man
I would do my part
Yet what can I give him
Dear Lord, I give Thee
my heart.
-- Christina Rossetti

Like Jesus
Dear God,
I like to think
Of Jesus who was a child
Like me.
Help me
In all my work and play
To try my best in every way,
And so, like Him to be
-- E. McE.S

Christmas Prayer
Dear God, help me
be like Christmas candles.
Help me let my light shine,
as Jesus told me to.
That I may be a Christmas candle
shining bright and true.
I need your love, O God,
to light my flame
and since it is so
small and frail
I need your protection
to keep it glowing
day by day. |
Christmas
C is for the Christ Child and the child
in all of us.
H is for the Heart of God, in Whom we
place our trust.
R is for our Redeemer, Who is finished
with His chore.
I is for Isaiah, who had told it all
before.
S is for the Shepherd lowly shepherds
came to see.
T is for Three wise men, who were wise
beyond degree.
M is for a Manger, a simple manger where
He lay.
A is for bright Angels who were standing
by that day.
S is for the Star that shone and still
shines out today!

Blessed Holy day we will soon see,
The day a Holy Babe came to you and me.
Christmas is here, again, all full of cheer.
Blessed Holy night and Happy New Year.
Oh, joyous night when Christ was born.
Love wrapped around us, no more to mourn.
The night and day is Holy, a Savior came.
He puts love in our hearts, all the same.
Oh! Joy to the world, a miraculous name.
All Gods children, His name to proclaim.
Oh, Holy night, I hear the Angels sing.
Blessed Holy night, peace to bring.
Glory in the highest. A babe of God is born.
The magi brought gifts, His name to adorn.
Holy, holy, Holy, Glory did he bring.
Holy, Holy, Holy, King of Kings.
