Linda Winchell - 'Slow Down This Christmas'

2014-10-29 66

With all the holiday hustle and bustle
We tend to overlook the importance of.
What the true meaning of Christmas is all about
The truest gift of a small child’s purest love.

Not a childs' bright red trains or toys
That are colorfully wrapped and set beneath a tree.
But the birth of child that came to save mankind
One day…at Calvary.

To offer mankind away…forgiveness of sin
While his broken body was nailed upon a cross.
Slow down this Christmas, so you too can feel the truest of love
Of our Saviors’ birth… in your Christmas haste, might have lost.

Linda Winchell
