Joy to the world
Our saviour has come.
For three decades
He walked upon the earth
Teaching us to live in harmony

On this day of his coming
Before we celebrate
Let us make sure no one is hungry
See to it that the aged are happy
Raise awareness that children
Of the poor have food
That with a full stomach
They appreciate gifts they open

Like John Lennon once said
"So this is Christmas, and what have we done.
Another year is gone, a new one just begun"
With these words lets make things happen
Lets reach out to the needy
With the love and joy
That our Saviour would want.
Happy Christmas,
May the smile on the face of the poor
Shine throughout the world for all to see.

I agree here! There are so many who have so little. In our department at work, instead of a gift exchange, we're pooling our money to buy gifts for needy kids.
