“It’s Christmas Time”

Ronnie R. Riles, Sr. makes a plea for more Christ-centered love in “It’s Christmas Time.”
Highlighting all the wonderful sights and sounds typically associated with the holiday–mistletoe, stockings, and energetic children–over the unhurried groove, he returns his subsequent verse with an abbreviated narrative of Christ’s birth; hence, the real meaning of the season.
It’s time, Riles says, “to show your love…to love everybody!”

I really liked this very original Christmas song. It brought back memories of my own childhood and also put Christmas in the right perspective.
