Messiah-Christ
Born in a stable
with animals near,
Mary’s son faced
a future unclear.
The Savior arrived,
vulnerable, small;
without a king’s palace,
nor fanfare at all.
Angels were bursting
to shout out their praise
and said to the shepherds,
with voices raised:
“Glory to God
and peace on earth
to favored ones…
rejoicing and mirth!
Your Savior is born,
Messiah-Christ the Lord!” ¹
May He be ever praised,
exalted and adored.
Luke 2:11-14

I love Christmas carols and music. My older sister and I used to knock on doors in our neighborhood at Christmas time and sing carols to our neighbors while braving the cold and snow. We had a great time and were sometimes rewarded with a Christmas cookie : )
