We live much of life amid unique choices. Joy is anchored in The One beyond our life. |
Gentle Christmas, find a way to bring us peace, and joy, anon, that when our gifts are on display for moments, fears of life are gone. Gentle Christmas, let us live within thy graces ev'ry day to find some Hope, and ways to give in all we do, and things we say. Gentle Christmas, will we find thy shining lights, and music fair throughout Th'Eternal Day so kind are wrapped-up in the Savior there? Gentle Christmas, is thy Name our Saving Lord, the Father's Son, Who took our sin, and bore our blame, Who died and rose, the third day won? We seek our joys in "spirits," here to numb the pain of saddened hearts, but everlasting Truth is clear, "Our peace begins when Jesus starts." Gentle Christmas, help us see the greatest celebration, known is in Thine Arms, we fly to Thee. Make childlike hearts in Thee be grown. Gentle Christmas, these three weeks are celebration's joyful path. Please, help us wait with minds so meek, that in its end we all shall laugh. by Jay O’Toole on December 1st, 2022 |
