A Tale to Tell
by
Barbara Philbrook
A tale to tell
over all the land,
of a loving Savior and The Salvation Plan.
A King left His
kingdom and His throne,
to pay what could be paid by Him alone.
He was born on a
cold winter's night,
in a stable under a star so bright.
An announcement
by the angels was made,
to tell the shepherds where He laid.
They traveled to
the stable so they could see,
the child who came to save you and me.
The wise men
brought myrrh frankincense and gold,
then avoided Herod as they were told.
The child grew
and became a sinless man,
as was laid out in the salvation plan.
Studying and
feeding on God's Holy word,
so He could defeat Satan when temptation occurred.
Giving love and
helping everyone He met,
knowing the worst was to come yet.
He taught His
disciples to do the same,
giving and doing in His Holy name.
Finally He had
to pay sin's deadly cost,
as they mockingly nailed Him to the cross.
Lowered and laid
in a borrowed grave,
rising three days later our souls can now be saved.
We must each
hear it and believe,
then eternal life is what we'll receive.
Each of us must
make this choice on our own.
This is what God's Holy Bible has shown.
A tale to tell
to one and all,
in hopes that they too on our Savior will call .
