JUST A BAD DREAM?


IS IT JUST A BAD DREAM OR ARE THESE THINGS REALLY HAPPENING?


Twas the month before Christmas 
When all through our land,
Not a Christian was praying
Nor taking a stand. 


Why the PC Police had taken away 
The reason for Christmas - no one could say. 
The children were told by their schools not to sing 
About Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things. 
It might hurt people's feelings, the teachers would say 
December 25th is just a ' Holiday'. 

Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks and credit 
Pushing folks down to the floor just to get it! 
CDs from Madonna, an X BOX, an I-Pod 
Something was changing, something quite odd! 
Retailers promoted Ramadan and Kwanzaa 
In hopes to sell books by Franken & Fonda. 

As Targets were hanging their trees upside down 
At Lowe's the word Christmas - was no where to be found. 
At K-Mart and Staples and Penny's and Sears 
You won't hear the word Christmas; it won't touch your ears. 
Inclusive, sensitive, Di-ver-si-ty 
Are words that were used to intimidate me. 

Now Daschle, Now Darden, Now Sharpton, Wolf Blitzen 
On Boxer, on Rather, on Kerry, on Clinton! 
At the top of the Senate, there arose such a clatter 
To eliminate Jesus, in all public matter. 
And we spoke not a word, as they took away our faith 
Forbidden to speak of salvation and grace 
The true Gift of Christmas was exchanged and discarded 
The 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 say 
Shout MERRY CHRISTMAS, 
not Happy Holiday! 

Please, all Christians join together and wish everyone you meet 
MERRY CHRISTMAS 
Christ is The Reason' for the Christ-mas Season!

DON'T LET THE WORLD'S LOSS OF "REASON" STOP 
YOUR WITNESS 
FOR CHRIST'S "SEASON"
