“Merry Christmas”

‘Merry Xmas’ they write on their greeting cards
Too hard to understand, what does that mean
I find it hard to search the meaning of ‘X’
What do they mean by this ‘Xmas’, not sure

Came to my mind those few lessons in Maths
Where I learned how to solve values of ‘X’
I have to go back to school, do some Maths
To get the value of that letter ‘X’

If you have an unknown number called ‘X’
Let’s place that ‘X’ here, come do some Maths
It is not that easy to solve this, dear
It could be anything, meaningless hear

Sadly learned they replaced Christ with that ‘ X’
They meant to say ‘Christmas’ but know no Christ
Someone here say Christ was a fiction star
For someone, He is not real, not a truth

Christmas is my Lord’s birthday for me dear
These children say birthday of ‘Santa Clause’
Christmas is a season for shopping deals !
Another reason to shop, drink and eat

Please do not condemn them, they never knew
No one has told them, that Christ was once here
And He is living amongst us all here
I am so glad and so lucky, know Him

They see the church in some people out here  
They judge the church on some of their mistakes
I know the church was not always right here 
I know the church is not always right dear.

Church is the living body of our Christ
Christ built His church for me and for you here  
It was meant to be on love, not the wealth
Teaching us to love our foes not to kill them

It was to serve the world, not to be served
Walk on the thorn, not to be on the throne
That doesn’t mean Christ has no value to add  
He is not just an X in our lives here 

let’s say ‘Merry Christmas’ with Christ in it.
It has a meaning, love and care in it
Let’s teach our children who Christ is for us
Merry Christmas and say Merry Christmas!!!
