December 19, 2020
The morning sun obscured by cloud
That covers me much like a shroud.
Yet I find joy inside my heart
To greet the day, and let it start.
It is a special time of year
As Christmas Day is drawing near.
I love to see the lights that glow,
Front doors adorned with wreath and bow.
The manger, Joseph, Mary, child
Adorn the lawns and bring a smile.
The songs of Christmas fill the air,
A music box, a cozy chair.
Warm cider brewing on the stove,
The smell of cinnamon and clove,
The sights, the sounds I’ve known before,
The smells and tastes that I adore,
Reminders of the newborn King.
I pray you know of whom we sing.
