'Twas The Night Before
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer'Twas the night before Christmas
And we were all asleep,
When all of a sudden
I heard a loud beep.
I laid there and listen,
What is that noise?
It must have been Santa,
playing with the toys.

Christmas A Happy Time
Poet: J. S. OgilvieSure, Christmas is a happy time
In spite of wintry weather.
For laugh, and song, and jest go round
When dear friends meet together:
And hearts are warm, and eyes beam bright.
In the ruddy glow of Christmas night!
Christmas Is Forever
Poet: Norman W. BrooksChristmas is forever,
Not for just one day.
For loving, sharing, giving,
Are not to put away.
Like bells and lights and tinsel,
in some box upon a shelf.
The good you do for others,
Is good you do yourself.

Christmas, Merry Christmas
Poet: Nina Moore TiffanyChristmas! Merry Christmas!
We greet it,we greet it with glee.
With laughter and singing,
So joyful are we.
It brings us full stockings
Cramm’d down to the toe,
And fine Christmas trees
On whose boughs presents grow.
But we know a reason
Far better than these,
For welcoming Christmas day;
Listen now, please. Dear
God sent a Christmas gift
Long, long ago,
To make people happy
And better, we know.
And so we, too, try
As the day comes each year,
To make our friends happy
And sad hearts to cheer.
Christmas Joy
Christmas is here, the best time of year,With lights that twinkle and Santa near.
Stockings are hung, the tree shines so bright,
Bringing us smiles on this magical night!

Christmas Chaos
Poet: Catherine PulsiferThe tree won’t stand, the lights are a mess,
The cookies we baked caused quite some stress!
The dog stole the turkey, the kids spilled the punch,
But somehow we laughed through the holiday crunch.
Wrapping gone wrong, with tape stuck in hair,
And glitter is scattered just everywhere!
But through all the chaos, the love still shines,
A Christmas to treasure, with hearts entwined.
The Countdown Is On
The countdown is on, the days flying fast,We’re scrambling to finish, will we last?
The lists keep growing, the tape’s out of sight,
But we’ll make it to Christmas—chaotic, but bright!

We Cherish
Poet: Gladys Naomi ArnoldWe cherish the sparkle of Christmas -
Shrieks of delight,
Greetings and laughter
When candles are bright;
We cherish the beauty of Christmas -
The quiet of night,
The silence of stars,
The glory of light;
We cherish the peace of Christmas -
A heart that sings,
An inner strength
That calmness brings.
Wishing You Christmas Cheer
May your Christmas be merry, your heart full of cheer,With laughter and love to last through the year.

Merry Christmas to you and joy to all!

What Christmas Is All About
Poet: Julie Hebert, © 2011We have to go back to the basics,
The day our Jesus was born.
As this is the day that we celebrate,
Our Savior was here in the morn.
We teach our children that Christmas,
Is trees, pageants and presents.
But let us not forget,
That Christmas is first, a Jesus event!
Merry Christmas!
Poet: Mrs. CraikIt is the Xmas time:
And up and down, 'twixt heaven and earth.
In glorious grief and solemn mirth,
The shining angels climb;
And unto every thing
That lives and moves, for heaven, on earth,
The shining angels sing.

Memories Of Christmas
Poet: Catherine PulsiferMemories of Christmas past
Memories that always last
Surround yourself with family and friends
Share the love that Christmas sends.
Memories of Christmas trees
Children smiling full of glee
Memories of houses full of lights
That seems to shine ever so bright.
But the most important memory of all
Is the story shared that the apostles recalled
The birth of a baby the angels also told
That story never grows old.
So all your memories keep in mind
But if you look for Jesus you will find
A peace that will be with you all year
You can share with others so dear.
There's a Reason
By Jason Kirk BartleyThere's a reason we celebrate Christmas so dear,
a reason we gather with Christmas cheer,
There's a reason why a feast we prepare,
for all of our family who has gathered right there.
There's a reason for the decorations and mistletoe hung,
a reason for the golden garland and silver bells that are rung
and the beautiful Christmas carols that are often sung.
There's a reason the snow outside is so white and so frigidly cold,
a reason that gifts are being bought and being sold.
There's a reason our tree is wrapped with beautiful blinking lights,
a reason a little baby was born 2000 years ago on that famous night,
in an old stable not fit for Him there,
and a reason the multitudes gathered with gifts and great care.
There's a reason this baby was born to die,
a reason the great star of Bethlehem marked Him from the sky.
There's a reason God had sent His only Son,
the only person worthy to do what needed done.
As Christmas nears, celebrate and have fun,
but keep Jesus in your hearts, for the victory He won.

Fear Not
Poet: F. R. HavergalThat was the first angelic word
That the startled shepherds heard;
Fear not! Beloved, it comes to you
As a Christmas message most sweet and true.
As true for you as it was for them
In the lonely fields of Bethlehem;
And as sweet today as it was that night
When the glory dazzled their mortal sight.
The First Christmas Carol
from Luke's GospelFear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy,
which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day
in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
And this shall be a sign unto you; ye shall find the babe
wrapped in swaddling clothes lying in a manger.
Glory to God in the highest, and
on earth peace, goodwill toward men.

The Light of Christmas
Poet: Emilie PoulssonOh! bright are the stars as they gleam on high,
And shed their soft rays from the summer sky,
But Christmas stars sparkle with lustre rare,
When carol and chime fill the frosty air.
For shining afar
To our hearts they say,
"Remember the Star
Of the Christ's birthday.
Love is the light of Christmas."
Oh! gay are the tapers that shine to-night
On gift-laden Christmas trees all alight!
But never a radiant tree would stand,
If love had not for the glad time planned.
So each tiny flame,
With its golden ray,
Helps the stars proclaim,
On the Christ's birthday.
Love is the light of Christmas.
Love at Christmas
Poet: Catherine PulsiferO Savior born so long ago,
Your light still shines, it makes hearts glow.
The star that led to your humble place,
Reminds us all of love and grace.
The angels sang, the shepherds came,
To see the child who’d change the game.
Each Christmas, your love shines so bright,
Filling the world with peace and light.

Christmas Is A Lovely Thing
Poet: Frances Benham JohnsonO Christmas is a lovely thing; the green
And fragrant boughs that decorate each small
And homely cottage, lighted candles seen
In friendly windows where their warmth may fall
On every passerby, bright ornaments
And holly wreaths, and packets gaily tied,
The joyous carols, and the pinewood scents
That fill the air, while bells sound far and wide.
The Christmas Chime
Poet: Grinnell WillisWe hear, like those of olden time,
The music of the Christmas Chime,
Telling its story again and again,
Of "Peace on earth, good will to men"—
That beautiful story told so well
By the sound of the joyous Christmas bell.
It seems of Christmas-time a part.
Finding an echo in every heart,
And everywhere throughout the land
Its tokens pass from hand to hand.
So may we our voices raise
With thankful hearts in songs of praise,
As joyful as the merry chime
That rings so clear at Christmas-time.

Get Ivy And Holly
Poet: Thomas TusserGet Ivy and Holly and deck up thine house,
And take this same brawn to seethe and to souse.
Provide us good cheer, for thou know'st the old guise:
Old customs, that good be, let no man despise.
At Christmas be merry and thankful withal,
And feast thy poor neighbors, the great with the small.
Yea, all the year long, to the poor let us give:
God's blessing to follow us, while we do live.
Christmas Everywhere
Poet: Phillips BrooksEverywhere, everywhere, Christmas tonight!
Christmas in lands of the fir-tree and pine,
Christmas in lands of the palm-tree and vine,
Christmas where snow-peaks stand solemn and white,
Christmas where corn-fields lie sunny and bright,
Everywhere, everywhere, Christmas tonight!
Christmas where children are hopeful and gay,
Christmas where old men are patient and gray,
Christmas where peace, like a dove in its flight,
Broods o'er brave men in the thick of the fight;
Everywhere, everywhere, Christmas tonight!
For the Christ-child who comes is the Master of all,
No palace too great and no cottage too small,
The angels who welcome Him sing from the height:
"In the city of David, a King in his might."
Everywhere, everywhere, Christmas tonight!
Then let every heart keep its Christmas within,
Christ's pity for sorrow, Christ's hatred of sin,
Christ's care for the weakest, Christ's courage for right,
Christ's dread of the darkness, Christ's love of the light.
Everywhere, everywhere, Christmas tonight!
So the stars of the midnight which compass us round
Shall see a strange glory, and hear a sweet sound,
And cry, "Look! the earth is aflame with delight,
O sons of the morning, rejoice at the sight."
Everywhere, everywhere, Christmas tonight!

What It's All About
Poet: Julie Hebert, © 2015Once Halloween is over,
And even before it ends,
Red and green begin to appear,
In stores and homes of friends.
The pressure to find the perfect gift,
Weighs heavy on our minds,
A rush to fill the season,
With things we hope to find.
But have we lost the heart of Christmas,
In the rush to give and take?
What about the love of Jesus,
The Savior for all our sake?
It's time to pause, remember,
The true meaning of this day,
For Christmas is a gift of grace,
A time to give in every way.

Joy To The World
Poet: Isaac WattsJoy to the world; the Lord is come;
Let Earth receive her King;
Let ev'ry Heart prepare him room,
And Heav'n and nature sing.
Joy to the Earth, the Savior reigns,
Let men their Songs employ,
While fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains,
Repeat the sounding joy.
No more let sins and sorrows grow,
Nor thorns infest the ground;
He comes to make his blessings flow
Far as the curse is found.
He rules the world with truth and grace,
And makes the nations prove
The glories of his righteousness,
And wonders of his love.
