“Oh, little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie, above thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by, yet in thy dark streets shineth, the everlasting light, the hopes, and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight. For Christ is born of Mary, and gathered all above, while mortals sleep the angels keep their watch of wondering love. Oh, morning stars together, proclaim thy holy birth, and praises sing to God the king, and peace to men on earth.”
Lord, teach us as we diligently keep watch for the Virgin birth, to spread hope, peace, joy, and love to one and all. As we adorn our homes with Christmas lights for all to see, so too let us allow the light of Christ to shine forth from within us so that it may illumine others for the glory of God.
