Twas the night before XmasTwas the night before Christmas, in a town called Bethlehem, Sir Joesph sought to find a place for him and his pregnant wife to hang, Mary waited patiently as Joseph walked the town all day. No one in town was serving hot coffee or tea, just a cold shoulder, The innkeeper even turned them away, No one in the town had not a place for them to lay, There was no motel 6 or Quality inn just an old stable with hay, Mothers were in the kitchen, like Martha Stewart, Papas were drinking their fine wine and sweet breads in a rocking chair, While the children sang songs and cuddled in their cribs, You see their lives where just too busy to even care, Twas the night of rejection by a town, not knowing a savior was near, Oh Blessed Child of Mary, to whom the world would revere, A Child who would shine on a town of rejectors, they now have a King to share My, how the story ends, all doors now open, no rejection, here Suddenly everyone seems to care, About a child born in Bethlehem, As the town began to celebrate, Remembering both God and His gift, The extraordinary light He gave to them, Should give our spirits an extra lift.
