Poem for Xmas time

Post by 1over137 »

Little child

Little baby, little king
Praise the Father, start to sing
Start to enjoy this good news
May it be time, time to choose

Let Him teach you, be your guide
Through the oceans, so much wide
Oceans of life, calm and wild
All lies in this little child

---

Am working on my book, so in spiritual mood, plus coming Christmas => poem : )
But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good.
-- 1 Thessalonians 5:21

For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.
-- Philippians 1:6

Okay, it's a little late...but then, I just got here this afternoon.
Here, then, is my own Christmas poem. I hope you guys will like it. I call it


The Virgin's Child

Trembling on the edge of a miracle
The whole world holds its breath
For a virgin holds within her
womb
Our deliverance from death

In a tiny town called Bethlehem
There walks an anxious man
He leads a tiny donkey
On it's back is God's Wondrous
Plan

He trudges through the crowded
streets
Looking weary and forlorn
Till he finds a humble stable
Where the virgin's Child is born

Behold, the sky is filled with
angels
Men's hearts quiver at the sight
Now hear the glorious
proclamation
You shepherds who watch in the
night

"Fear not, oh simple shepherds
For the virgin has given birth
We bring you tidings of great joy
And peace to men on earth"



The Magi come to worship Him
Heaven's King, foretold
To honor Him with gifts of myrrh
And frankincense, and gold


Following a star bright as morning
To the feet of the virgin's Son
They come from the mystic Orient
To worship the Promised One

He was born amongst the animals
Like the sacrifice He was to be
Though the world could barely
make Him room
He came to change our destiny

To a world that hardly seemed to
care
God's Greatest Gift was given
His Word was fulfilled, His
Promise kept
He sent us the Treasure of Heaven


He is standing and knocking at the
door
Oh, don't leave Him outside
Make room in your heart for the
virgin's Child
On this joyous Christmastide
"Lord, I have no gift to bring
Only this little song I sing."

"My child," gently smiled the Lord,
"Go, and sing it to the world."
