Analysis of Dear Christmas Message To All
As Christmas comes near the world changes
we see people's attitudes and caring ways.
People helping people really doing their best
To ensure this Christmas is one that will bring happiness.
A time of the year when the heart is open
To help others and to love one another.
If only this attitude could last all year long
Our world would be so much more peaceful,
Christmas is coming, the close of another year
People are happy they spread much good cheer
More so at this time of year, my friend
Hold no grudges and quickly make amends.
In all that you do, may love be the rule
Love is stronger this season of Yule.
Christmas brings peace in the world which is good
If love and peace would stay, if only it would!
A baby lay in swaddling clothes, a helpless child was he;
A king whose robes were laid aside, He came to rescue me.
The stable was His place of birth, a lowly cattle shed;
The One who formed this very earth lay in a hay-strewn bed.
Judean shepherds saw the light, the message was declared,
“Behold! The King of kings has come!" Yet earth was not prepared.
Today this message still stands firm; He came to set us free,
He loved us so! He gave His life, what joy! What liberty!
