~~ Santa's Christmas Prayer ~~

By Warren D. Jennings

The sleigh was packed,
The reindeer were fed,
But Santa still knelt
By the side of the bed.

"Dear Father," he prayed
"Be with me tonight.
There's much work to do
and my schedule is tight.
I must jump in my sleigh
And streak through the sky,
Knowing full well
That a reindeer can't fly.

I will visit each household
Before the first light,
I'll cover the world
And all in one night.
With sleighbells a-ringing,
I'll land on each roof,
Amid the soft clatter
Of each little hoof.

To get in the house
Is the difficult part,
So I'll slide down the chimney
Of each little heart.
My sack will hold toys
To grant all their wishes.
The supply will be endless
Like the loaves and the fishes.
I will fill all the stockings
And not leave a track.
I'll eat every cookie
that's left for my snack.
I can do all these things Lord,
Only through You,
I just need your blessing,
Then it's easy to do.

All this is to honor
The birth of the One,
That was sent to redeem us,
Your most Holy Son.
So to all of my friends,
Lest Your glory I rob,
Please Lord, remind them,
Who gave me this job."

~~ Christmas Tree Blessing ~~

Holy Creator of Trees,
bless with your abundant grace
this our Christmas tree as a symbol of joy.
May its evergreen branches be a sign
of your never-fading promises.
May its colorful lights and ornaments call us
to decorate with love our home and our world.
May the gifts that surround this tree
be symbols of the gifts we have received
from the Tree of Christ’s Cross.
Holy Christmas tree within our home,
may Joy and Peace come and nest
in your branches and in our hearts.

Amen.
