The Sandals
Introduction
It is that time of year where we celebrate the joys of the holidays,
the rushing around at the last minute for that one gift
you know him/her will love,
or maybe something special for the parents or kids.
This is the only holiday out of the year
that is a prequel to Christmas itself,
so I start here with a collection that will incluide the holiday setting
as well as Christ himself.
As time unfolds, I will include other holidays throughout the year,
so this will rear its head periodically.
... and may I say it now before I forget,
may this Christmas find you happy and safe.
We have a lot to be thankful for after the year we have had
and I feel that now, more than ever,
we should all starting spreading
the real joy of what this time means.

Can you handle a pair of sandals;
that have roamed across this land?
Can you handle a pair of sandals;
that bled and died for you?
Can you handle a pair of sandals;
that has walked across the sea?
Can you handle a pair of sandals;
from a man who set us free?
We have sinned and turned away,
on the truth of life.
That if we give ourselves to Jesus,
we’ll find joy from a man who set us free.
Can you handle a pair of sandals;
and the truth of his coming reign?
Can you handle a pair of sandals;
as Jesus comes to us again?
