THE TREE; THE LIGHT; THE GIFT....Christmas Poem"Inspired" sigs THE TREE; THE LIGHT; THE GIFT Christmas tree in the corner Branches green outspread Dressed with beads and tinsel And baubles gold and red Bright lights dance around you Head to toe you're lit A range of decorations Cover you every bit An angel set on high Or crowned with golden star At your feet the gifts Arranged around you are Eager hands will reach To tear paper away To see what has been given On Merry Christmas Day Did you ever consider? When decorating your tree Of one with Christ attired Put there for you and me Gold should've been His crown But thorns were wore instead From His wounded body Flowed baubles of blood bright red When you gaily arranged the lights That shine so bright to eye Did you think at all of Jesus? Who came for you to die The Light of the world Shining brighter than golden star That glows on tree above you And lights the place you are Gifts below the branches Wrapped and tied with bow But the greatest Gift of all Was given years ago How eagerly you received The ones that you were given But did you accept the One That God sent down from Heaven The tree; think of the cross And of Jesus that it bore The lights; think of Him Who shines forever more The gifts; think of the One That was given at Bethlehem The tree; the Light; the Gift Let Christmas speak of them Colin Moffett.
