On the 24th Day of Christmas I am Grateful for Christmas Eve

The presents are wrapped and under the tree
and there is snow that blankets the world around me
I look forward to my day full of sledding and fun
with my family whom I love a Ton.
I will prepare a yummy Lil' feast tonight
and then turn our thoughts to the Christ Child who is full of light.
We will put on a play of the nativity story
with angels, shepherds, and a baby who comes with Glory
The star is bright and up in the sky
and beautiful angels sing from on high
Gloria! Gloria! The Christ Child, our savior and redeemer, is here.
The shepherds fall to their knees in awe for the angels were so near.
They visit the humble Christ child who is in a manger, in a stall
and savor that moment standing in the presence of the Lord who will save us all.
I think of being back there somewhere in time
and witnessing the coming of our Lord, a moment I could call mine.
I am so grateful that Christ came to this earth
to suffer and die for each of us, to give us a new birth
Which birth comes for us after we die
and be resurrected, it is no lie.
for I believe this truth with all my heart
and for doing so I believe to be very smart
For I believe In God and what he did for us
Which was GREAT and so we must trust.
May this season be turned to Christ
and not so much focused on the presents and the lights.
I look forward to tonight getting tucked into bed
after saying our prayers with bowed heads
And looking forward to Christmas Day
GIVING to each other after that which was given to us on a bed of hay
May we all have a Good Christmas and a Happy New Year
full of new experiences and blessings and cheer.
So go forward this day having fun and glee
for tomorrow the Christ child is born and we'll thank Him on bended knees.

Merry Christmas Eve~ Love Always, Camille Jones
