How beautiful the star filled night;
The sky so blue! An ethereal light.
Casts a halo, a circled ring!
An iridescence around all things!
My God! What is this light I see,
Shining so bright in front of me?
One star, more brilliant than all of them,
Hovers over a town called Bethlehem!
Somehow I know that I must go,
To find what caused this sudden glow!
With sandaled feet, and staff in hand,
I trudge across the desert sand!
People are gathering all around;
So many gifts! They're laden down!
And there! In a bed of manger hay,
A tiny new born baby lay!
Trumpets played! Angels sang!
From voices such sweet anthems rang!
The happy sounds, the songs they sing;
Are odes of joy to Christ the King!
I know now why I came this way!
Mary and Joseph watch me pray!
Thank you dear God! All I can say,
Is thank you for Christ and Christmas Day!
By Roy 12/5/99
"The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son and they will call him Immanuel."
- Matthew 1:23, Isaiah 7:14
How beautiful God works His wonders, and provides for all the world. With His hand He reached out and blessed the soul of Mary, and, in a dream spoke
to Joseph, and the virgin conceived and brought forth a son. Jesus was His
name and He came to help His Father in the wonders of God's creation. Peace and
Love, Roy
