THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS
Created and Written by Jim Tippins
The classic poem "T'was the Night Before Christmas" is a secular poem
featuring Santa and his exploits on Christmas Eve. Another poem, "T'was
the Night Before Jesus Came" tells the story of the second coming of
Jesus and has no connection to the birth narrative. I felt that the poem
needed a retelling, this time with the birth of Jesus being the central
theme. Below, are two of the lines of this wonderful poem.
'Twas the
night before Christmas
'Twas
the night before Christmas, when all through the inn
Not a room could be found, without or within;
The travelers were tired from their journey with care,
In hopes that their baby soon would be there;
