Holiday Traditions from Wondrous Christmas by Valerie Cox

We enjoy a church service
Eat Chinese food that night
Then read Christmas stories
By the glow of tree lights

We open family presents
Play music in the living room
Have birthday cake for Jesus
Then go to bed soon

We pray as we believe
Let Santa do his thing
On Christmas Eve


Holiday traditions
Differ everywhere
Celebrations vary
From here to there
Holiday traditions
Are so beautiful
They're filled with meaning
So listen... and share

At dawn we go together
To see if Santa came
In matching Christmas PJs
We look happily insane

We take photos at the tree
Open gifts one by one
Enjoy a Christmas brunch
Once the opening is done

We make angels in the snow
Sing Christmas carols
By a bonfire's glow

Holiday traditions
Are so beautiful
They're filled with meaning
So listen... and share

We may celebrate different holidays
Or the same different ways
Love and peace will always grow
When we cherish these things
To find peace and love
With joy in our hearts
Let's celebrate each other
And let the holidays start!
