The morning is here.
We have been waiting
For the birthday of Jesus
It seems a long time coming
We wonder how the
Orient Kings felt
Their trip was long and
They must have felt relief
The shepherds were nearby
And the angels nigh
The Holy Family also traveled
From afar, due to a decree
No room in the inn, they
Settled for a stall. As we
Celebrate we also have a
Heavy heart. The baby had to
Fulfill a prophesy made a long
Time ago. He would grow into
A man, a carpenter and then
A preacher and miracle worker
He knew His time was marked.
He gathered His followers to
Spread the good news. We think
Of this as we gather and sing songs.
Now is the time to be quiet as the
Child has to sleep. He has a big
Journey ahead.
