Around the world Christmas means different things to different people.
Boris Gardiner, a Jamaican lead vocalist, uses the lyrics below to capture the meaning of Christmas in a song that was recorded in 1960.
The song bears the title, The Meaning of Christmas.
C is for Christmas, the season of good cheer
H is for happiness to last throughout the year
R is for respect, which each and all should show
In this holy season, wherever you may go.
I is for indulgence, to know how far to go
S is for Santa Claus, the children all do know
T is for toys, for little girls and boys, around the world where e’re they may be you’ll find them joyfully.
M is for manger, the place where He was born
A is for angels, who watched from dusk to dawn
S is for stars that led three men from afar.
