SPIRIT OF GIVING
 
The presence
of God fits down the chimney.
God came bearing
the greatest gift of all.
Jesus is the atonement
for our iniquity.
He is a free gift
for all who answers His call.

A cloud of God`s love
filled Gods House.
The cloud fits down the chimney.
But even if we have no chimney,
God`s presence
is here for you and me.

Santa may be a myth,
or make believe,
But the spirit of giving
is for us to receive.
Long ago
there was a Saint Nicholas
who knew the spirit of giving.
Saint Nicholas is dead,
but his spirit is still living.

Who do you think
Santa got his spirit from?
It came from Christ:
God`s only begotten Son.
''Come they told me
a new born king to see,
(Rum ba bum bum)''


1 Kings 8:10-11
King James Version (KJV)
10 And it came to pass,
when the priests were come out
of the holy place,
that the cloud filled
the house of the LORD,

11 So that the priests could
not stand to minister
because of the cloud:
for the glory of the LORD
had filled the house of the LORD.
