A Christmas Story

T’was the night before Christmas, And few people knew,
A King was coming, to die for me and you.

The time was nigh; the Lord of hosts said,
For His Son to be born with only a manger for His bed.

He would show mankind the true meaning of love,
Learned from His Father, the Lord from above.

On earth He would have nothing not even a home,
A King without a kingdom His destiny to roam.

He said to all people come and follow me,
I’ll give you a new life and make you eternally free.

He performed many miracles; He even raised the dead,
This is the power of the Lord, the man named Jesus said.

Then the time came for His work to be done,
As He hung on the cross, it was said this is truly God’s Son.

He was buried in a tomb, not even His own,
They thought it is over as they sealed it with a stone.

But, just as He said in three days I will arise.
As witnessed by His followers with tears in their eyes.

This is the story that brought me happiness and peace,
We must tell it to the world so from sin man can be released!
