Driving Christmas Eve In My Car
Driving late Christmas Eve in my car
I beheld a site looking like a red star.
As it came closer I got a better view.
It was a red nose reindeer seen from afar!
It was Santa Claus up close and true.
And Rudolph and other reindeer too.
They were pulling Santa’s Sleigh tonight.
What an amazing, fantastic, wondrous sight!
It came closer and to my surprise
It overwhelmed me with its huge size.
It bumped the top of my small car’s roof.
It might have just been a reindeer’s hoof!
I looked up through the front windshield.
Santa gave me a laugh that would not yield.
He looked down from his big red sleigh,
And said, It is almost Christmas Day!
Then off he went into the late night dark.
Rudolph’s nose guiding the toy filled ark.
I could hardly believe my joyful dazed eyes.
What happened was wonderful to realise!
I was so excited my head was spinning.
I went over it in my mind from the beginning.
I can still see the smile on Santa’s face.
How does he do it and make such haste?
This was no encounter of an ordinary kind.
Probably on beyond any I’ll ever find.
I will always remember that Christmas Eve
That made it impossible not to believe!
I thought it was over but it wasn’t at all
It was just a momentary pensive lull.
My car started floating off the ground.
Things started moving fast all around!
It must have been Santa’s magic ‘flying stuff’.
I was flying high and couldn’t get enough.
Then I saw him in the distance ahead.
On his trip he continues just like he said!
He looked back and shouted this to me.
Got to hurry faster. It is almost three!
Here I was on this magical journey with him.
Riding on the magic of his sleigh’s tailwind.
There was much to do while it was still dim.
He’d hop onto a roof top hippity-hop-bop
Going down the chimney with each stop.
He did this with lightening ‘Santa Speed’.
How else could he do this enormous deed?
I watched him with observer amazement
Deliver presents where they were meant.
I still can’t believe my wonder struck eyes.
To see this is like winning a sought after prize!
I saw Santa point to his watch on his wrist.
Suddenly his sleigh made an unusual twist.
He glanced at me and said, Get a load of this!
Upside down the toys from his sleigh fell down.
Their intended target, the chimneys, they found!
Just one of the tricks of the trade for me.
Santa said merrily laughing with jolly glee.
I think that should do it for this year’s trip.
Back to the North Pole, Rudolph. Let ‘er rip!
I hadn’t noticed but there was my house.
I descended in front of it quiet as a mouse.
I went inside and what did I gladly see?
Presents all piled up for me under the tree!
Advance, You Future New Generations!
Advance, you future new generations,
As you rise in life’s long succession.
Fill the places which we presently fill.
We hail you, as you live in God’s Will.
Embrace the blessings of Godly Virtue.
Be able stewards of good government.
May religious liberty be shining for you.
With God’s Light renew every moment.
May every day welcome you to a world
Full of happiness where love is unfurled.
For your parents, kindred, and children,
Let your Godly Wisdom lead them then.
The immortal hope of your Christianity
Seasons the rational existence you see.
Herald The Light of Truth Everlasting,
It will flow forth as a Heavenly Spring.
Build your life on God and The Bible.
Each generation in America is liable.
Forge our nation’s Christian heritage,
As did our past forefather’s parentage.
Be courageous! Be lovingly tolerant!
Make your virtuous character prevalent.
Exemplify ardently past Christian men
In Spirit and deed proceed to Heaven!
Have the virtuous mind of true believers.
Be cautious of those who are deceivers.
The Glorious Ordinances of God uphold.
His Promises will come about as He told.
God will prosper you as you go forward.
With Grace your works can last for ages.
Spread Christ’s Knowledge as stewards.
Your works will be in Heavenly Pages.
The Divine Light of the Christian Pilgrim
Can affect how future people know Him.
Lay a foundation of Truth in our country.
Christianity is the basis for Democracy.
Our ancestors did establish government,
Based on morality and Godly Sentiment.
It reflects what makes us good Christians
And makes us God-fearing good citizens.
The world is watching! We are inspected!
America is a people governed by elected,
A country where rights were resurrected!
Power and coercion have been rejected.
Let’s not forget the character of our origin.
Our Fathers brought veneration of religion.
They journeyed by God’s Guiding Light,
And laboured in the hope for what is right.
They sought to incorporate its principles
With elements of their society, very simple.
So we cherish their efforts and influence,
Where their past and our future confluence.
By Spirit we can be part of a blessed race
In the highest degree of peace and Grace.
May government be guided by Providence,
By a Beneficent Creator with Omniscience.
So go forth boldly generations of the future!
This country was Our Fathers Tabula Rasa.
Their ‘second chance’ by you will endure.
Advance! Advance with the vision they saw.
So near is your future greatness to our past.
So near is Almighty God’s Hand to man.
Christianity demands, Make freedom last.
Future generations reply, With God we can.
