Angel Feathers

Miracle

Under velvet skies, a diamond twinkled,
Guiding leaders of wisdom on a blessed journey
To a humble home where a King lay in Mary's arms.
Within that Baby, divinity's light shines
Filling a searching world lost in shadows.
O Lord, help us to see You in humanity,
Your precious Face among those in need.
You descended from on High to us
In our poverty and filthy rags,
Walked among those who did not recognize You,
Spoke Truth to power, lived and died for us.
It all began one velvet night in Bethlehem
Heralded by a diamond in silent skies.
