Was going through some paper files & found this:

C is for Carols so clear & so sweet
H is for Happiness full and complete
R is its Radiance that glows like a flame
I is the Infant who gave it its name
S is the Story inspiring all men
T is the glad Tidings told once again
M is its Message of good-will and peace
A is its Age-old joys that increase
S is its Spirit that blooms for all time.

My mum used to sing this to me when I was little, Funny how it came back as soon as I read this post

C is for the candy decked around the christmas tree
H is for the happiness of all the family
R is for the reindeer that pull along the sleigh
I is for the icing on the cake as sweet as sugar cane
S is for the stocking that hangs upon the wall
T is for the toys beneath the tree so tall
M is for the mistletoe where everyone is kissed
A is for the angels who make up the christmas list
S is for dear Santa who makes every kid his pet

Be sure to be good and you'll get everything on your christmas alphabet

The Meaning of Christmas
C - is for Christ who was born on this day,
and placed in a manger to sleep in the hay.
H- for the Heavenly Host that did sing,
to the glory of God, and the Babe who as king.
R- means He's risen, that we might be free,
for from manger to cross was his destiny.
I- For the Infinite, All Powerful One,
who so loved the world that He sent us His son.
S- for the Shepherds tending flocks there that night
most blessed of men to behold such a sight.
T- for the Twinkle of that star shining bright,
to proclaim the Lord's birth, and to guide by it's light.
M- is for Mercy for those here on earth,
this is God's promise, fulfilled by Christ's birth.
A- for Almighty, omnipotent Child,
with power unrestrained, yet ever so mild.
S- for our Savior, our Lord and our King,
who's birth, life and death, our salvation did bring.
