(To the tune of “Dreaming of a White Christmas”)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’m looking at a pagan Christmas
Where people act so very crass
Lots of goods and decoration
But no time for celebration
Of God coming into the flesh
O that they’d come to know Jesus
Who died and rose again for them
Turn from their selfish ways
And serve Him all their days
Finding in Him eternal rest.
He came not just to bring toys
For all those wicked girls and boys
But to die for all you sinners
Both chubby and the thinner
Especially to bring salvation joy.
O, Jayne, you are such a wife
You don’t deserve me all your life
Such a penance you must bear
From you I get such care
While you put up with so much strife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
