Some folks think that Jesus
     Was born on Christmas day,
But the Bible does not tell us
     It really happened that way.

 

The shepherds watched their flocks,
     In the Bible we are told,
But Galilean grass was gone
     By December’s winter cold.

 

His day of birth we cannot know,
     Nor should we really care;
But His painful death on Calvary
     Means salvation to them everywhere.

 

The Jesus that we want to worship
     The One we must so love
Is not the Babe of Bethlehem
     But One raised and gone above.

 

"Let’s put Christ back into Christmas"
     This need I do not deny;
But methinks it just as necessary
     To put Him in the 4th of July.

 

-– Wallace Alexander, December 2000 –-
