TWAS THE MONTH BEFORE CHRISTMAS

[GV Patriot]

Twas the Month before ChristmasTwas the month before ChristmasWhen all through our land,Not a Christian was prayingNor taking a stand.See the PC Police had taken awayThe reason for Christmas - no one could say.The children were told by their schools not to singAbout Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things.It might hurt people's feelings, the teachers would sayDecember 25th is just a ' Holiday '.Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks and creditPushing folks down to the floor just to get it!CDs from Madonna, an X BOX, an I-PodSomething was changing, something quite odd!Retailers promoted Ramadan and KwanzaaIn hopes to sell books by Franken & Fonda.As Targets were hanging their trees upside downAt Lowe's the word Christmas - was no where to be found.At K-Mart and Staples and Penny's and SearsYou won't hear the word Christmas; it won't touch your ears.Inclusive, sensitive, Di-ver-si-tyAre words that were used to intimidate me.Now Daschle, Now Darden, Now Sharpton, Wolf BlitzenOn Boxer, on Rather, on Kerry, on Clinton!At the top of the Senate, there arose such a clatterTo eliminate Jesus, in all public matter.And we spoke not a word, as they took away our faithForbidden to speak of salvation and graceThe true Gift of Christmas was exchanged and discardedThe reason for the season, stopped before it started.So as you celebrate 'Winter Break' under your 'Dream Tree'Sipping your Starbucks, listen to me.Choose your words carefully, choose what you sayShout MERRY CHRISTMAS ,not Happy Holiday!Please, all Christians join together andwish everyone you meetMERRY CHRISTMASChrist is The Reason' for the Christ-mas Season!
