CHRISTMAS

        Here we are awaiting Christmas
        Storing up our gifts and food
        Spending lots of lovely money
        Don't forget, we must include
        Auntie Betty, Uncle Norman
        Cards for all the chaps at work
        Daren't miss out a single person
        Mustn't be found out a jerk.

        Whilst were stuffing all the turkey
        Christmas pud helped down with wine
        Slumping down in front of tele
        Snoring through the pantomime
        This is usual for the masses
        Greed and gluttony abound
        Whilst, outside, the homeless passes
        Searching pavements for a pound.

        Jesus Christ was born at Christmas
        Sent to earth to save us all
        Lived to serve all those around Him
        Always perfect, standing tall
        Helped the leper, healed the cripple
        Underdog and down and out
        Suffered greatly for His mercy
        Hated by the men with clout.

        So we must be all like Jesus
        Following His every way
        Showing love to all who need it
        Living in His humble way
        For He loves a cheerful giver
        One who relegates himself
        To the role of peoples servant
        That is how we earn our wealth.
