CHRISTMAS EVE AND OTHER DAYS OF HYPOCRISY
Selfishness and Self-centeredness Are
What These Unholy Days Are Really For
A Four Part Harmony Dedicated to "Christmas"
(Written on December 24th, 1998)
These days of once a year benevolence so-called
Remind me every year that I'd rather
Have nothing to with these days of hypocrisy
Days that most people think
Are supposedly days of wine and roses
Special times of family togetherness
When most also continue
The ritual of leaving those with little or none
Further out in the cold
Without even the temporary warmth of closeness
December 25th wasn't even the day
Jesus the Christ was born on
And there's no doubt that it's been proven
That He was born in the Fall
Not in the Winter at all
Besides, it's not a day of His
Any more than Sunday
Is His one day of special worship
Yet people treat both days
Like they're in honor of Him
BUT HE WHO SPOKE HEAVEN AND EARTH INTO EXISTENCE
HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOUR DAYS OF HYPOCRISY!
(John 15:9-14.)
