Analysis of Invisible Christmas Gifts
There are some gifts that you won't see
Beneath the yearly Christmas tree,
Because some Christmas gifts are those
That can't be bought like toys or clothes.
There are some gifts like time we share
With those who can't go anywhere
Especially on Christmas day
When loneliness can come and stay.
And there are gifts in what we do
Like serving food in hungry queues
Or wrapping and delivering
The gifts for those who have nothing.
Please help the ones whose needs are great
Before you start to celebrate.
This Christmas to show Christian love,
Just like the kind from God above!
