Why take Christ out of Christmas,
And call it Xmas Day;
Send Christmas cards with holly on,
Or Santa in his sleigh?
Just think of the reason for Christmas,
When you wake on Christmas morn.
For this is a very special day -
It's the day when Jesus was born.
Why take Christ out of Christmas,
When you sing of Bethlehem;
Of Jesus, Mary and Joseph,
The Shepherds and the Wise Men?
Let's put Christ back in Christmas,
As we celebrate His birth,
With joy and love to all nations,
And a Christmas peace to all people on earth.
