Christmas Day

In lowliness the Christ Child
Within a manger lay,
Long years ago in Bethlehem
Upon this Christmas Day.
We are so prone to fast forget
His glorious day of birth,
And think of Christmas merely
In terms of joy and mirth.
Let all of us take time and pause
To bow our heads and pray,
And prove that we remember
That Christ was born this day.
