Twas the month before Christmas When all through our land, Not a Christian was praying Nor taking a stand.
See, 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 peoples' feelings the teachers would say December 25th is just another "Holiday."
Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks and credit Pushing others right down to the floor just to get it! CD's 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 and Fonda. As Targets were hanging their trees upside down At Lowe's the word Christmas could nowhere been found. At K-Mart and Staples and Penney's and Sears You won't find 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 from all public matter. We spoke not a word, as they removed Faith, Forbidden to speak of Salvation and Grace.
The true gift of Christmas was exchanged and disgarded... The "Reason for the Season" stopped before it started.
So as you celebrate "Winter Break" under your "Dream Tree" Sipping your Starbucks, please listen to me. Choose your words carefully, decide what you'll say... Shout "MERRY CHRISTMAS!" not "Happy Holiday."
