A Christmas Message For 2020


Have you ever thought how it might be
if we were not allowed to have a Christmas tree.
To walk the beaches nor the park,
To fear outside after dark?

Have you ever thought how it might be
If our windows were covered and we could not see
For the fear out there that might peep inside
Where we cower in one room where many reside?

Hoping to survive just one more night
Without the killing and without a fight
Never being able in public to pray
Or go shopping with friends on a nice sunny day?

To never praise God and his love
And be slaughtered if we mentioned Heaven above
No food or heat, no water and light
Just huddle together hungry each night?

Nothing to look forward to but sadness and fear
In other parts of the world Christmas is here
Why wouldn't we all get on our knees and pray
For a safer time and a happier day?

As we enjoy our holiday season
Do all of us really need a reason
To be loving and thankful and work together
To make our world safe for each other forever?

This is my Christmas message to you
Be good Americans in all you do
Please put aside hate and discontent
Be thankful for what our Lord has sent.

Remember our comrades far, far away
And pray for them a better day
For those who live in Heaven above
Pray for their families let them feel our love.

Please pray for our Government and may they see
The needs that we have, yes you and me
Help other countries but don't forget
Your people have necessities that cannot be met.

I know with prayer, these problems will be solved
And much needed help will reach us all
You have an unthankful job to do
I hope every American will pray for you.

This is my Christmas message for everyone
Who heed all evil and honors His Son
Let us be thankful and may I just say
Be happy we can celebrate this Christmas Day.

~ Stay Safe and Merry Christmas ~
