~ A December to Remember ~

I hope your Christmas tree
is shining brightly today;
As brightly as the star over the manger
where as a baby He did lay.

The presents are wrapped and tied
with ribbons of red and gold;
Like the special gifts of the wise men
as they traveled to behold....

The Christ Child who was born
upon a wintry Christmas day;
For those who would believe in Him
forever being the light and the way.

The true meaning of Christmas
lies deep within each of us;
Just look into your hearts to find Him
and in Him put your trust....

Into everything that is truly good
to bring the world together;
I pray this will forever be
a December to remember.

May your tree shine very brightly
this Christmas and throughout the coming year,
And may each day forever be filled
with blessed Christmas cheer.
