To inspire others inspires me


The sounds of joy during the holidays
 The warm climate, nothing like the cold december i know
 Music bounces from walls to walls
 Kids laughter laced with nothing but joy
 They who don't know what a christmas dinner is
 What christmas presents are
 or even who santa is?
 All they know is its a time to be happy
 Even with nothing in there pockets
 Or food on their plates
 They care for their family and do nothing but pray
 This christmas, they will sense the smell of dinner at their place,
 With family gathered around just to pray,
 bringing the unfortunate a chicken to their plate
 In El Salvador, there is nothing but poor,
 Kids have no clothes, shoes or food
 But this christmas eve, i will do good
 I want to inspire them to help others in need
 Because without some help, some can't feed.
 Christmas is a time to be happy
 And the gift for me is to give the kids something to eat.
