Families Will Gather
by Barbara Philbrook

Families will gather as Christmas draws near.
It is the day we celebrate Jesus' arrival here.

Born in a stable in a town called Bethlehem,
this was how His life story began.

To live a life completely sin free,
to die on a cross for the likes of you and me.

Three days later coming back once more,
and now He's knocking at your heart's door.

Offering eternal life to every woman and man.
This is known as the salvation plan.

All who who partake will forever live.
This is what Jesus came here to give.

You can read it all in the Holy Word,
all about the plan and what has since occurred.

You can read of the choice to be made,
as a result of the price He's paid.

Families will gather to celebrate,
you can share the truth with them before it's too late.
