Oh Little Town
A part of the Christmas spirit is surely in the shopping for gifts. If you like Christmas, you most probably like the gifts giving associated with it. You probably like the idea of the Christmas birth and the Christmas story. You probably glorified the picture in your head even though you know the challenges that the baby Jesus faced. If you are like most, the truth of the manger birth is superseded by the association of gifts. So, you do everything to perpetuate this giving of gifts

Oh Little Town On the streets
of Have no time
to stop and chat, they’re shopping everywhere Let there be
no closing early, they expect to shop till late It’s now the
standard for Bajans, the way they celebrate To mark this
great occasion, they buy gifts for all their friends Then deliver
them to everyone before the season ends Lights blink
a welcome at the door to invite the shoppers in Excited
shoppers clamor for more and wish it were everlasting Then bags
filled and all done, they rush on their way Once all is
bought and finalized, their hustle was A okay When next you
see our little Town, all is quiet as a mouse No one’s there,
they disappear, it’s Christmas in their house |
