Its that time of the year.
With sales, and great values, for all to hear.
On radio, and TV, there’s no escape, no way.
The advertising starts out on Thanksgiving Day.
“Our prices are so low, why don’t you give our store a try”.
You’re all welcome... Just as long, as you buy.
Yes the prices are low, it will burn your pockets some holes.
But is the price, strengthening our Souls???
Do we loose site, of what we should do?
Is Christmas a pagan holiday?
Is this really true?
“Well JESUS will understand, if we do it in His Name”.
The druids decorated trees, are we the same?
Well here’s another fact that we don’t want to hear.
The stores all want to show profits at the end of the year.
And in thoughts and memories of our youth…
Do we remember, gifts & food, or seeking the truth?
But still we celebrate…
Especially if we have kids, just like our Parents, and grandparents did.
Just please remember and don’t loose site.
Of whose birth we celebrate, on our silent night.
Help some needy help some poor.
Like JESUS would do, of this I’m sure.
And as you snuggle in your beds, get those sugar plum fairies out of your heads.
Do you think a consumer is what JESUS would be?
For JESUS was a contributor, to you and me…
Celebrating JESUS is never wrong.
So do it in praise, do it in song,
Or we all try to just to get along.
The first thing we should do, and not the last.
Is keep Christ in CHRISTmas like in the past…
Oh just one more thing…
JESUS was born in the spring…
MERRY CHRISTmas TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT.

There were a few times when you used "site" when I think you meant "sight". And the tone seemed slightly defensive--just a bit disconcerting and in contrast with the words. I'm not explaining that very well, sorry.
Your title was very well chosen and expressed!
