The Greatest Gift

by Ron Tranmer

When Christmas shopping is finally done,
wrapped gifts lie 'neith a tree
that sparkles bright with tinsel and light
for everyone to see.

Each gift has been selected
with thoughtfulness and care.
Toys and such will mean so much
like all the gifts we bear.

But let us keep within our heart
the much greater gift than these.
One from above, with God's great love
should bring us to our knees.

A gift of birth to all on Earth.
A gift that's far from small.
To everyone, He gave His Son...
The greatest gift of all.
