(This poem can be sung to the tune of,
"I'll Be Home For Christmas"

Light the Christmas candles.
Set the manger scene.
Read Luke's precious story.
Tell what Christmas really means ...


Memories we treasure,
Songs we love to sing.
Tell the world that Christmas
Is the Birthday of our King!!

You can bring a smile to Jesus
And live a perfect day.
Greet with Love (like His above)
Everybody, on your way.


Jesus, let Your heart's love
Shine today in me ...
As I tell the world that Christmas
Is the Birthday of My King!!


Fill your days with laughter.
Dream for all you're worth.
Tell the world that Christmas
Is the sweetest day on Earth!!
