The Christmas Light

It is day!

A new and exciting light shines upon the world!

A light of love.

A ray of hope.

A path to forgiveness.

A little child is born.
One whom the grace of God has given us.
To show that the power of love
Is the power of God.

Born in a manger
A king of kings from humble birth
He will bring down earthly rulers
He will show a path to a greater kingdom

A kingdom of heaven
Brought to earth
Through love, hope and charity
Through love of God and man

The wise will visit him
And shower him with gifts
The poor shepherds flock to his side
Because the poor will always be with him

The sinners are welcome
Repentance and forgiveness are possible
The hungry are fed
The naked are clothed
The sick are healed

The rich who gain by exploitation
Who do not love or share or care
Who seek to control by arcane rules
They are turned away empty handed

Rejoice!
The lord has come!
The infant son
Lights the world!

Come!
Open the door!
Let in the light!

LOVE
