Christmas

Christmas 

Sparkle, twinkling shining lights

help to take the dark from the night

the colours they glisten and bounce 

from snowflake to snowflake

all to the Glory of it's name sake

Jesus had come, Jesus had gone

but it's what He had done

that we remember the most

the message from the Heavenly Host

was clear as could be 

but falter did we

as Christmas draws near

reminded are we

of He who came to wipe our sins clear

Each light that twinkles,

each branch adorned

each gift wrapped in pretty paper 

A Heavenly reminder 

of a babe in a manger 

whose purpose was 

to spend his life teaching us of the Father's Love

and bring us to our Lord above

This Christmas season friends

I pray for one and all

that as you hang that last Christmas ball

You'll pause a moment and bow to pray

in thanks for that Glorious Day

when our Lord and Saviour came our way

Though He does not walk in the world with us

He's never left our side.

Let's not get lost in all the retail fuss

inside our hearts is where He needs to abide.

Merry Christmas Friends, Families and Foes

Glory to God in the highest

and on Earth peace to men on whom his favour rests
