Merry Christmas to all and God’s blessings in the coming year.
Merry Christmas to everyone on FR! Here are the words to one of my very favorite Christmas songs. I learned this song long ago, and never forgot the words as they meant so much to me.
C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-S
When I was but a youngster,
Christmas meant one thing,
That I’d be getting lots of toys that day.
I learned a whole lot different,
When my Mother sat me down,
And taught me to spell Christmas this way:
“C” is for the Christ child, born upon this day,
“H” for herald angels in the night,
“R” means our Redeemer,
“I” means Israel,
“S” is for the star that shone so bright,
“T” is for three wise men, they who traveled far,
“M” is for the manger where he lay,
“A”’s for all He stands for,
“S” means shepherds came,
And that’s why there’s a Christmas day,
And that’s why there’s a Christmas day.
I had a lovely Christmas day. My sister gave me a replicate of a Tiffany lamp, which is now in my parlor.
I got the fireplace lit and am enjoying the ambiance.
How many times did you watch The Christmas Story?
A belated Merry Christmas to All as well.
