Merry Christmas

The Gift of Christmas, if only they had known,
The King was to be born to save the world,
They would have covered you in garments fit for a King,
Fabric woven with gold thread with the Word of God,
A crown of jewels would have adorned your head,
Blankets made from beautiful fabrics and embellished with lace and finery,
For your cradle.
Which would have been made from the finest gold,
They would have songs and hymns written to celebrate your birth,
Millions of people would have traveled to meet you,
Offering you many places to stay,
I ask you sweet Jesus to stay close by me forever,
And love me I pray,
I give you a place to live within my heart,
To praise you with my talents and voice lifted high,
You are the greatest gift
That our Father has given,
The only gift I need at Christmas...you are the greatest gift of all.
The song for this post is Silent Night.
Wishing you and your family a very blessed Christmas.
Blessings, Karen
Just beautiful. Mimi
What a beautiful, beautiful post. Merry Christmas and a wonderful holiday season to you. :)
So beautiful, Karen, such thoughts! Wonder what those angels were thinking as they saw the King of Heaven in such circumstances. Incredible. Merry Christmas to you...
And, now we who do know are so blessed. It is our duty to share the news. You do that every day through the joy you share with each of us.
Wishes for holiday blessings.
Oh Karen, that is the most beautiful tribute I have ever seen. Thank you for the pleasure of viewing your post today.
