Christmas is a time of reflection and love. In our hectic world, it is sometimes difficult for us to recognize the essentials: friends, family and people who accompany us. It is precisely these people that you should show how much they mean to you – whether through time, conversations or small gifts.

We can either buy Christmas cards or make and design Christmas cards ourselves. Then there is the selection of the right Christmas sayings: Whether you rhyme yourself, a quote, saying or verse or even a song text is up to you – the only important thing is that it suits the recipient and has a personal connection! In our selection you will find suggestions and beautiful sayings that your loved ones will surely be happy about at Christmas.
Sayings about Christmas: Not just on Christmas cards
If you’re not a fan of Christmas mail or if you don’t have enough time to send cards, you can also write short sayings on a gift tag. Little secret gifts, such as boxes with homemade biscuits or roasted almonds, take on even more meaning with Christmas sayings and wishes. And even right on Christmas Eve, it doesn’t hurt to have a few contemplative sayings at hand that, when recited with the family, are guaranteed to create a Christmassy atmosphere.
Christmas Sayings: Poems & Verses
- There are such wondrous white nights where all things are silver. Many a star shimmers so gently, as if it were bringing pious shepherds to a new baby Jesus. Wide as if strewn with diamond dust, fields and floods appear, and in the heart, dreamy, rises an unchapeled faith that quietly works its miracles. (Rainer Maria Rilke)
- Christmas: A mild star laughs down from the sky to the deepest clefts; Scents rise from the pine forest and the night becomes candle-bright. My heart is so happy and frightened, this is the lovely Christmas season! I hear church bells in the distance, in fairy-tale quiet glory. A pious magic holds me down, adoring, I have to stand in amazement, it falls on my eyelids, I feel it, a miracle has happened. (Theodor Fontane)
- Christmas: The market and streets are deserted, every house is quietly lit, I walk through the streets musing, everything looks so festive. At the windows women have piously decorated colorful toys, thousands of little children stand and watch, are so wonderfully happy. And I wander out of the walls into the open field, glorious splendor, holy shudder! How vast and calm the world! Stars twine high in circles, out of the snow’s loneliness it rises like wonderful singing – O you merciful time! (Joseph von Eichendorff)
- Christmas time: Listen, heavenly songs resound lovingly down to the earth: God’s love is awake on the holy night! Hallelujah! Cheering jubilation mingles with the festive sound of the bells: Mercy will be upon us today in the Christmas season! Hallelujah! Those who cling so faithfully to the Saviour, may they all be embraced by the tree of lights of a happy childhood dream! Hallelujah! (Julius Gersdorff)
- Think I’ve seen the Christ Child! It came out of the forest, its cap full of snow, its nose frozen red. Her little hands hurt because she was carrying a sack, which was very heavy, and was dragging and pounding behind her. Do you want to know what was in it? You wise guys, you pack of rascals – do you think the bag is open? Tied up to the top! But there was definitely something beautiful in it! It smelled like apples and nuts! (Anna Knight)
- A pious magic holds me again, adoring, amazed I have to stand; A golden child’s dream sinks down on my eyelids, I feel it – a miracle has happened. (Theodore Storm)
- Tomorrow Santa Claus is Coming: Santa Claus is coming tomorrow with his gifts. I would like to have colorful lights, silver ornaments, children and cribs, sheep and bulls, shaggy bears and panthers. But you know our wish, you know our hearts. Children, father and mother, even grandpa, we are all here, waiting for you with pain. (Hoffmann von Fallersleben)
- O beautiful, glorious Christmas time! What joy and happiness you bring! When the holy Christ in every house distributes his loving gifts. And no matter how small the little house, the holy Christ comes in and everyone is as dear to him as his own, the poor and the rich, the big and the small. The holy Christian thinks of all, each one receives gifts from him. So let’s be happy and thankful! He also thinks ours, mine and yours! (Hoffmann von Fallersleben)
- I will honor Christmas in my heart and try to keep it alive throughout the year. (Charles Dickens)
