The Meaning of Christmas

More like Christ Jesus may we be,
And more for others live,
As God taught us on Christmas day,
When He, His Son did give.

May we see Christ in manger born,
With comforts all denied,
Who left the glory of His home,
And came our steps to guide.

Christ gave up everything He had,
And lived for you and me,
His sacrificial love for us
Took Him to Calvary.

May Christ's example touch our hears,
And help us to perceive,
That greater far it is for us
To give, than to receive.
