Christmas greetings quotes

Health, Peace, and sweet content be yours.

~ Shakespeare

Bless us Lord, this Christmas, with quietness of mind;
Teach us to be patient and always to be kind.

~ Helen Steiner Rice

Peace on earth will come to stay,
When we live Christmas every day.

~ Helen Steiner Rice

Whatever else be lost among the years,
Let us keep Christmas still a shining thing:
Whatever doubts assail us, or what fears,
Let us hold close one day, remembering
Its poignant meaning for the hearts of men.
Let us get back our childlike faith again.

~ Grace Noll Crowell

Christmas!
The very word brings joy to our hearts.
No matter how we may dread the rush,
the long Christmas lists
for gifts and cards to be bought and given--
when Christmas Day comes
there is still the same warm feeling we had as children,
the same warmth that enfolds our hearts and our homes.

~ Joan Winmill Brown

Christmas Eve was a night of song
that wrapped itself about you like a shawl.
But it warmed more than your body.
It warmed your heart...
filled it, too, with a melody
that would last forever.

~ Bess Streeter Aldrich
