Once More
by
Barbara Philbrook
Once more as we
approach the end of a year,
we remember how our precious Savior did appear.
How having left
His Father on the throne,
He came to be born in a manger as was shown.
Shown to the
wise men and prophets of old,
who the Savior's lowly birth foretold.
Told He'd be
born in a stable that night,
and how the shepherds would behold an awesome sight.
The Heavenly
angels singing with wonder and glory,
as they witnessed the beginning of the Salvation story.
Wise men would
travel from far away,
so homage to this Holy Child they could pay.
The story would
pass down to our century,
allowing all who would hear a choice you see.
The choice of
whether or not to live for eternity,
whether to accept what Jesus did for you and me.
The greatest
gift you can give this year,
is to explain that choice making it perfectly clear.
Everyone must
choose on their own,
look in God's Word the truth is clearly shown.
No one who calls
on the Savior will be forsaken,
the gift of Salvation is yours for the taking.
Oh how happy
Jesus would be,
if you would choose to be with Him for eternity.
Give Him the
greatest gift of all this year,
accept salvation and reserve your place there.
Once more we
celebrate Jesus' birthday,
let's determine we'll do it the right way.
