The shepherds they got it,
the angels did too.
The wise men understood.
How about you?
The angels sang in chorus,
creation gave a shout.
But the innkeeper missed it,
he locked them all out.
The prophets foretold,
the Scriptures were clear.
How it would happen,
for God to draw near.
To come as a baby,
could be seen as a risk.
He could have flown in,
on a shiny gold disk.
But a manger it was,
without or with hay.
So many missed it back then,
and still miss it today.
The glorious gift,
sent from heaven above.
God's grace to express,
the way back to love.
So try not to miss it,
it's easily done.
The true meaning of Christmas,
the birth of God's Son.
