Winters
Scene
I watch the birds as they take to the sky
As the golden leaves fall down
Telling all winter is nigh
As sprinkles of snow start covering the ground
Natures creatures running to and fro
Gathering food for winters rest
Listening to the gentle winds blow
Seasons birds building their nests
Children playing with the fresh fallen snow
Building their imagined things
Window lit with that soft Christmas glow
What a feeling of happiness it brings
We thank you God for these gifts of love
Such as this winter blanket stretching far
Sparkling white as heavens doves
Beyond the distant Eastern star
A
Christmas to be remembered
The virgin white snow covering the land
Children sliding and playing the days long
Main Street all dressed up grand
The playing of seasons carols and songs
This will be a Christmas in our memories to last
For its the finality of this generations years
It will be in the book of time ,molded and cast
For the new millennium's birth is near
Christmas is and should always be
A praise of the birth of Jesus ,the son of our creator
It is through his blood that we are free
No other christmas present could be greater
So let us fill the empty chairs and pews
To sing praise to God on high
For he is the one who will guide us through
The changing course of time and tide
Christmas
Greetings

Such a happy and wonderful event
To the memories of adults it brings back crystal clear
Many Christmas's of the past,and pleasant moments spent
With this season children will dream at night
The vision of vast toys and games in sight
As they fantasize what Christmas morning will be
Snuggled up warm in their blankets tight

Caroler's with joyous songs in celebration
Of the birth of Jesus under God's watchful eye
The Savior of all of God's creation
So from our family to yours this holiday feast
We wish you great happiness and spiritual wealth
May the brightest star that guides from the East
Bring you many more treasured moments of a Joyous Noel

Wishes
Christmas is a time to give and receive
The gift of the holiday spirit
A time for children's laughter at their play
Friends and passer byes with season greetings to say
The best of holiday wishes to one and all
From the stranger we greet to the children small
The hustle and bustle of shoppers buying
To the little baby in its carriage crying
The songs of Christmas Carol's filling the air
The little ones stopping at each shop to stare
In the window just hoping it will be
That shiny new toy under the Christmas tree
But best of all the churches with there seats filled
With congregations of the real meaning instilled
Giving praise in song of the birth of Jesus Christ
Surrounded by Kings and Heavenly Host's divine light
In the spirit of the season may this day be of one
Of great celebration in praise and song
Of the birth of Jesus, God's beggotten son
For whom this time of giving and receiving really belongs.
Our Special Christmas Greeting
Christmas to children comes but once a year
Yet! to them such a happy and wonderful event
To us adults it brings back so crystal clear
Many past Chritmas's and pleasant moments spent
At this time each child dreams in the night
On just how special this Christmas day will be
Snuggling up warm their blankets tucked in tight
Trying to guess , or sneaking in the closets to see
In the stores boys and girls sit on Santa's lap
Whispering in his ear on what to bring that night
So from our house to your house this Holiday Feast
May we find you prosperous and well
May the brightest star shining in the East
Bring you many treasured moments of this Happy Noel

In anticipation of the excitement of the night
Crying out to passerby with shouts aloud
Urging the Town Officials to light the tree lights
Releasing the spirit which is built in their hearts

For Christmas is for all children tender and small
Isn't it great the excitement it brings

Gloucester
Christmas Greeting
The Fishing boats tied to their docks
With their crews resting from the sea
Children placing their Christmas socks
Upon the Family Christmas tree
Churches and Chapels crystal and clean
Waiting upon the arrival of each guest
Sunday School teachers rehearsing each scene
Of a Christmas play slated to be this years best
Peace on Earth for the return of all women and men
Who were chosen to protect the lives of all
It is through the meaning of Christmas we send
A prayer of peace as our City and Nations call
Silint Night most Holy Night
May the blessings of this Christmas be
Future days of happiness and delight
For this is the gift of God for all mankind to see
Hometown
Christmas
With the scent of the Holiday filling the air
We once again circle our Christmas tree
Which has become a hometown gathering
For all Gloucester children to see
With the parade once again leading the way
To this circle of youth filled hearts
Watching the girls and boys at their play
Anxious for the Festivities to start
In the lighting of this special tree
Those gathered here to celebrate the Saviors birth
Have but one very special wish
That of a never ending Peace and Goodwill on earth
May the illumination of this tree
Bring to all a spirit of happiness and cheers
That through the vision of youth we'll see
This gathering continued for many more years
Rose
Baker Christmas Greeting
We gather this day to share some laughter and glee
In celebration of that immortilized night
That King's and Sheperd's bowed down on their knees
To behold such a miraculous sight
Just as then we now unite in praise
To celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ
With all our friends to share this day
In this new center so spacious and bright
So let the laughter ring out loud and clear
As we share with our friends on this happy occasion
Merry Christmas to all on this wonderful day
May all your fondest dreams come true
For in my heart I just want to say
That this Special Celebration is a gift from all of you
Who
is Santa ?
Around Christmas time a child will ask
Is there really a Santa Claus ?
So it must be the parents task
To answer with the truth because
The greed of man has destroyed
The true meaning of Christmas Eve night
So to you I must now emplore
To give to children the answer that is right
He is the youth of our younger years
The fantacy of a sleigh and eight reindeer
For my child , Santa you could say
Is God above the bearer of life and love
Children Jesus was born on that night
Surrounded by his fathers eternal love
The manifested stars and heavens light
Its star of the East below the gates above
So my children Santa will live on
He will exist in your hearts
Of this coviction always remain strong
For as you age, Gift of Chritmas never parts. |
