Happy birthday, Jesus,
enjoy it to the max,
Look down from Heaven
with a heart-filled joy,
Every heart among us
that finds time to relax
Reflects again on
Mary's baby boy...
Nativity's the reason
that love gets shared abroad,
The Christmas Gospel carols
sung once more,
Remembering the One,
Good Shepherd, King and Lord
That all God's holy angels
yet adore...
And who are we today
to differ from their love,
At distance from the Saviour
You still are?
Like wise men from afar,
we ought to look above
And humbly choose to gaze
beyond each star...
For blessings still unfold,
revealed as prophets told,
More precious than the
present days on Earth,
Yet blessed if we behold,
God's Son, as good as gold,
More precious than this sad world
should deserve...
Happy birthday, Jesus,
enjoy it to the max,
Look down from Heaven
with a heart so glad,
Of all that trust Your Name,
there's not one soul that lacks...
You're the most perfect gift
we've ever had...

The Christmas poem is based on seeing
the Gospel film called The Perfect Gift
thanks to the upbeat film being shown
on the Revelation TV channel today.
