Alan Wagstaff #118734. Published by Alan Wagstaff (A0.507484). This is a country-style waltz, arranged for choir (SAB) and fiddle, harp and piano, which searches for the true meaning of Christmas. here is the lyric: Crossed Out of ChristmasA Good Man was framed, on a bare, rocky hill; it happened somewhere in the distance. Though He paid a high cost, He was not double-crossed, till the day He was crossed out of Christmas. ‘X’ marks the spot where a word is crossed out; ‘X’ marks the strange and suspicious. ‘X’ marks a treasure, without any doubt, since the day Christ was crossed out of Christmas. The shops and the super-stores tell us the news; the signs. say that X-mas is here. And the message is hurled, right around the whole world –but something seems missing this year. ‘X’ marks the spot where a word is crossed out; ‘X’ marks the strange and suspicious. ‘X’ marks a treasure, without any doubt, since the day Christ was crossed out of Christmas. I want to re-write, on this parcel tonight, a word that somehow came adrift. Christmas! Christmas! Christmas! Lord God! ‘cos that is the true Christmas gift. Christmas and X-mas ain’t one and the same, and I guess there is only one reason. So let’s do it right, and by starlight tonight, we’ll unwrap the power of the season. ‘X’ marks the spot where a word is crossed out; ‘X’ marks the strange and suspicious. ‘X’ marks a treasure, without any doubt, since the day Christ was crossed out of Christmas.
