Poem#120 Look Past Christmas
Matthew, Mark, Luke, John
Before we know it another December 25th will come for what?
Will we be caught up in the busyness of Christmas without Joy
Another words get so busy we forget to slow down to enjoy
Hopefully most of us know Jesus wasn’t born December 25th
And most of us realize the date isn’t important long as we Love
And we think of the way God came to be born to Love Us
Still so many people putting up decorations not thinking of Christ
Instead letting pride get in the way of best Christmas show & tell
When could be showing the way to God’s house in you & me
This time of year, show people it’s not about the lights or Christmas trees
Definitely not about someone from the north pole, not about getting gifts
It’s about the giving heart of Jesus living inside giving hearts of others
When Family from all over come together to celebrate Love born to us
Let’s remember to slow down & pray for those with less family this year
As Our Prayers will help Prodigal’s find the Family that unites us as One
Hopefully will remember to be less selfish in finding the latest big sales
And be more selfless in leading others to look past Christmas to Jesus
No better gift then Watching someone Opening up their heart for Jesus
Before another December 25th passes by, remember to slow down
Look past Christmas to Jesus & welcome the Lost beinging lost no more
Celebrate with the Angels in celebrating the Family of God coming home
Theirs no greater Joy then when God came to be born among us as told
Walking with us in the cool of the day like we should’ve long ago in Eden
Jesus was looking past Christmas on the Cross when we’d be All Home
