The Real Santa Clause (Religious Content)

The Real Santa Claus

With children at their knees
They tell of the light
That guided three wise men
To a manger late that night
Where lay Christ the Saviour
Wrapped up warm and tight.

Stories to feed chilhood dreams
As to bed they put them all
And tuck them in with a kiss
While wondrous stories they recall
Under the tree presents are placed
By the real Santa Claus.

They don't know Mom and Dad
Are the real Santa Claus
For children need the mystery
And stories to give them pause
It's done because of love
And not for any other cause.

Mom and Dad are late to bed
And oh so early they rise
The reward that they find
Is in the children's eyes
As each sees their presents
Reacting with excited cries.

Santa Claus is for children
Moms and Dads all agree
But they're told of the Saviour
So when they're older they will see
That it was love they were given
And Santa Claus was you and me.

Merry Christmas everyone and my best wishes to each and every one of my Neofamily.
