fools rush in....

 

It came upon a midnight clear
            a star shone high above
'twas time for a Babe to appear
                    and show the world his love

Once upon a midnight clear
           was a time when people
                    knew what Christmas meant.

Then thru~ each new year 
          the meaning slowly disappeared
          fools rushed in with twisted views bent.

The Christmas vision of the Newborn King
             had been replaced  it seemed
                     and once upon a midnight clear
      was clear no more

about the Babe in a manger on the floor.
                                 by Wise Men once adored.

Must agree on this.......you are 100% correct. Where oh where has the true spirit of Christmas gone?
Very profound thoughts, which I hope many will think about.
