Love For Jesus: A Christmas Poem For Children

A Christmas poem for children dear,

For young and old who gather near.

A star that's shining, oh, so bright!

There's something happ'ning on this night.

White Christmas with snow angels, small,

Santa's reindeer, presents all.

A tree that's trimmed, so perfectly

And church bells chiming, beautifully.

A choir that sings and brings delight,

'”Joy to the World”, “O Holy Night”;

Baby Jesus, a manger where

Mary and Joseph ensure His care.

Shepherds and sheep, the cattle moo;

Little lambs are bleating too.

Three wise men came on camel's backs

With gifts; others followed in their tracks.

Baby Jesus, where is He?

It was not long; all forced to flee.

But celebrations continue on.

Rebirth of man with each new dawn.

Peace on earth and blessings true;

All Christians know the story's true.

So children too, must all be told

Why celebrations still unfold

Around the world, yes, ev'rywhere;

God is so good and He's still there.

Awaken all of those you love

And hearken to His truth above,

Beyond the realm of earthly pain

And celebrate, yet once again.

Love is the reason Jesus came.

Give thanks to God and praise His name.

Love is the reason for Christmas celebrations.
