Praise Song 4 – What Keeps Me Smiling! (#117)
“It’s Christmas morn
When Christ was born
The joy in my heart
Keeps me smiling…”
Christmas Morning

Christmas – the time which
makes us smile.
As a child we all looked
forward to Christmas. It really made us
smile in anticipation of the presents we would receive.
Plus there are so many
wonderful memories and aromas associated with this special season.
Who can forget the
wonderful unique smell of imported pine trees?
Great smell, but difficult to clean after a few days when they stared to
shed their brown needles.
And what about the
Christmas delicacies – ham, great-cake; then there was the refreshing sorrel
drink. These and many more things are
part of our childhood memories. Of
course, we still have these things today but during childhood they were extra
special.
Traditions like these are
very significant, but there is a much deeper significance which characterizes this
season – and it has to do with having a relationship with Jesus Christ.
You see, without His
entrance into this world and giving His life, there would be no reason to
celebrate.
But, I am so glad that He
did! Now that makes me smile. “It keeps
me smiling.”
