’Twas the month before Christmas when all through our land,
Not a Christian was praying nor taking a stand.

The reason for Christmas - no one could say.
The children were told by their schools not to sing,
About Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things.

Adapted from “Can this be Christmas?”
Can this be Christmas?
What’s all this hectic rush and fuss?
Where do all these crowds go in such a hurry?
They speed by so fast they look blurry!
They sit at the lights getting ready to take flight!
They dash into the store and then flash out the
