Christmas Stories
'Twas the week before Christmas when all through the land,
families gathered together with remotes close at hand.
Spending time with George Bailey and Clarence, a must.
And then turning the channel, it's Hooville or bust.
It's surely not Christmas without Scrooge and Tiny Tim,
And the bunny-suited Ralphie, we can't forget him.
So many traditions, so full of good cheer,
But one big omission so glaringly clear.
The story forgotten by many I fear,
Is the one in the Bible of a God who drew near.
To the humblest of stables the dear Christ child came,
And the world He created would never be the same.
So this Christmas amid all your favorite traditions,
Make room for the story of a Child on a mission.
Crack open your Bibles and read the real story,
And celebrate Christmas in all of its glory.
