It's a perfect time

It's a perfect time for Christmas
 It's a perfect time for love
It's a time for giving, a time for living
 A time for God above

It's a perfect time for Christmas
  It's a perfect time for truth
It's a time for reading, a time for heeding
 A time to begin things with "Forsooth"

It's a perfect time for Christmas
 It's a perfect time to give
It's a time for merrity, a time for charity
 A time to help others live

Note: Two new verses written to the poem 12/27/18 to replace the two I didn't think were good enough. The old verses were:

It's a perfect time for Christmas
 It's a perfect time for getting together
It's a time for sharing, a time for caring
 A time for sleigh bell weather

It's a perfect time for Christmas

 It's a perfect time to gift
It's a time for merrity, a time for charity
 A time for giving a lift

Also, just to hold this, I might could replace the last line of stanza two with 

A time for things spoken forsooth
or
A time for all things spoken forsooth
or
A time for all things beginning with forsooth
or 
A time for beginning things with forsooth

Other possible stanzas:
It's a perfect time for Christmas
 It's a perfect time to grow
It's a time to be better, a time to be a go-getter
 A time  ---

It's a perfect time for Christmas
 It's a perfect time for the brotherhood of man

It's a perfect time for Christmas
 It's a perfect time for family

Note #2: Tweaked poem again 12/29/18
