CHRISTMAS EVE

V1.  It’s Christmas Eve,

We celebrate the nativity.

Jesus is God’s beauteous

Gift to everyone.

Jesus dwelt among us,

And showed us

How to give and

How to love.

V2.  It’s Christmas Eve,

It is tradition to put gifts

Under the Christmas tree.

It expresses love in our

Relationships.

It’s Christmas Eve,

It is tradition for families

And friends to sing salutations.

It is an affirmation

Of our love for them.

C.  Christmas Eve.

Christmas lights.

Christmas trees.

They sparkle

And twinkle

Like they are

Covered in crystals

Of garnet, opal

And citrine.

V3.  Christmas gifts sit

Under the conifer trees.

They gleam in

The soft twilight.

Gifts of love

And surprise.

They are for Christmas Day,

When we celebrate, Jesus,

God’s gift to mankind.
