A TALE OF CHRIST God sent to us his very own son, In hopes our hearts he would of won, Born in a cave with a hay strown floor, Only because his parents were dirt oor, The shepherds tending sheep in the pasture, Heard the angels praise their future master, In amazement and wonder they went to see, Their savior and king that was to be, They offered their love and devotion, Although he was too young to understand their emotion, Three wise men were on their way to see him, When King Herod find out he stop them, King Herod asked them where they were goig, And the wise men told him without knowing, That King Herod was planning something horrible from the start, For Satan had put evil in his heart, The wise men went and saw gods son just the same, When they left for home an angel said don't go back the way you came, For they were to report to King Herod where the child did lay, Instead they went home not by king herods way, Because of this and the Kings anger, All the children near Bethlehem were in danger, He sent out his soldiers to do his will, For all the children two and under to kill, All the weeping and crying and mothers tears, Could not stop what happened a mother's worst fears, Jesus was not there during all this strife, An angel told Joseph to take the child to Egypt to save his life, They lived in Egypt where they had fled, Until the angel came and told him king herod was dead, They went to nazerth which became their home, From there they knew they would not have to roam, Jesus grew up wise and strong in god's eyes, And he was affected by all the priest lies, He knew that they lied to and cheated the people, Because they thought all their minds were simple, Well Jesus was baptized by john, And god recognized Jesus as his son, Jesus went to the wilderness for 40 days and nights, He was tempted by the devil with all his might, Although the devil lost the battle of wits, He told Christ he would be back for he had not called it quits, After that Jesus started teaching god's word, And healing the sick and raising the dead using the spirit of the lord, He took 12 disciples and taught them about god, He hoped they could help him with his job, Because of what Christ was doing for the people the priest did hate, They banded together to seal Christs fate, They had a mock trial filled with lies, And they filled the room with blasphemous cries, They took him and nailed him to the cross, Afterwards they realized their great lost, For after he died and rose from the dead, They went before god with great dread, For they they had killed god's son, And they knew Christ was tt prophesied one, But what they did not know was when Christ died on the cross, To satan it was a great loss, For all god's children were washed clean of sin, And the battle for god's children's satan could not win, Not only did his death bring us salvation, But he also became most Christians churches foundation, So give god your love and devotion today, So Christ will remember you when he comes back this way,
