KEEP CHRIST IN CHRISTMAS<br />
If we keep Christ in Christmas<br />
He will keep us every day,<br />
And when we are in His keeping<br />
and we follow in His way,<br />
All our little, earthly sorrows,<br />
all our worries and our cares,<br />
Seem lifted from our shoulders<br />
when we go to God in prayer.<br />
