Chrystmas Alphabet

A for the animals, out in the stable,
B for the Babe in the manger cradle,
C for the carolers, happy and gay,
D for December, the 25th day,
E for the Eve when we're all so excited,
F for the fun when the Christmas tree's lighted,
G for the goose, so round and so fat,
H for the holly and Santa's red hat,
I for the ice on snow-covered hills,where sledding is fun, in spite of the spills,
J is for Jesus, the Christ child so dear,We honor His birth on Christmas each year,
K for the kitchen where Mom cooks the feast,
L for the light shining way in the East,
M for the mistletoe. Watch where it hangs!
N is the noel the angels first sang,
O for the ornaments trimming the tree,
P for the presents, for you and for me,
Q for the quaking of shepherds in fear,when the bright angels brought them the words of good cheer,
R for the reindeer, leaping the roofs,
S for the stockings that Santa Claus stuffs,
T for the toys, the tinsel, the tree,
U is for us- the whole family,
V is for visitors, friends far and near,
W is for welcoming wreaths on the wall,
X is for Xmas, with pleasures for all,
Y is for Yule logs whose bright sparks fly high,to give a warm welcome to friends passing by,
Z is for zeal we show at this timein giving to others and loving mankind.

Oh Little Child
(Roger J. Robicheau)

Oh Little child so near the tree

The precious view you clearly see
Adorned in white, a glistened sight

A chilling warmth, it’s nearly night
Excitement grows within each eye

A splendid match, so bright yet shy
You make each wish, each secret part

A ray with God, so fills your heart
Your wants are small, unselfish child

Not to be wrapped, branded or styled
A world of hope, filled full of peace

A caring call, let love increase
Next year this child so wants to be

Back out to watch, this growing tree
What of our wants as time goes by

Will hope and peace and love climb high

Christmas

(Liam Kane)

Christmas is a time to cheer

Happiness is always near

Rudolph's nose is so bright

Icicles are in sight

Santa is very busy

Taking pressies to little Lizzie

Mrs. Clause waiting for Santa

At the shop buying fanta

Santa can now relax.
