Here is my Inspiration of God's Greatest Gift
The Gift

The best gift of all
you can't find it in a Mall
or under any tree
And most importantly of all
it is absolutely free
It was rare and yet so perfect
Well thought out and planned
In the form of a small baby
who grew to be a man
Fore told of by the prophets
His day was sure to come
to cleanse the world and
set us free from all that
we had done
His life was sent to save us
and in the end it did
you ask me how could this be so
He died so we could live
He gave us life eternally upon a cruel cross
And even when all hope was gone
we were not left for loss
The message was so very clear
right from the very start
this child who grew to be a Man
He had the purest heart
People came from everywhere
just to hear Him talk
His stories were so wonderful
for miles and miles they'd walk
Crowds had gathered all through towns
on hillsides and on shores
with every message that he gave
they always wanted more
Along with His fine speaking
something else had happened too
The lame could walk, the blind could see,
the sick became well too!
Even some who though were dead
were raised for us to see
that nothing is impossible
for those who just believe

Believe in what you just might ask
as this story continues on
Who is this Son this special child
as this story continues on
Who is this Son this special child
And where was he born.
The angels told the night he came
He is the Son of God
He came to free the world from sin
And peace on earth to bring
Angels sang and shouted
"Glory to Our King"
shepherds came, wise men too
Bearing special gifts to see
The Son
The angels said was laying in a manager
This tiny little baby
was not in a pretty bed
Nor did he have lace blankets
wrapped about his head
He was lying in a manager
just as the angels said
His crib was just
a trough with hay
that lay beneath
his head
Now this is how the story goes
there is so much more that's true
this is just a little of the gift
as told from me to you
You too can have this special gift
Just close your eyes in prayer
Ask the Lord into your heart

Ask the Lord into your heart
to wash
away your cares
This special little baby that grew to be a man ..
You see his name is Jesus Christ
He died so that all may understand
Eternal life is his perfect plan
Note: This was written back in 2000 .. shared many times.. published in A Candy For All Seasons .. by LisaMe!
Was demonstrated over Many years ago ..
The message never gets old.. We celebrate the birth of Christ every year ..
Christmas has been so commercialized .. Jesus is the reason for the season ..
He is the gift that God sent to the World.. for the forgiveness of our sins.. to give us eternal life ..
The world has turned the celebration into a world-wind of presents .. and have lost the presence of God ..
May this spark a reminder in your hearts as you share..
The Gift of His Love this year ..
Love LisaMe!
