They come in strings and all kinds of stuff<br /> They can stir up a lot of seasonal fluff<br /> They are really nice on a Christmas tree<br /> No matter where the location may be<br /> <br /> Children are excited by Christmas lights<br /> with thoughts of Santa and toy-filled sights<br /> There was also much light from a certain star<br /> as three kings astonishingly travelled so far<br /> <br /> This star was a first of Christmas lights<br /> as these wise men visited the divinely chosen site<br /> and the sheppards too were startled beyond<br /> as a chorus of angels sang a new song<br /> <br /> The king of Kings had come to earth<br /> to free us from the evils with which we flirt<br /> Born in a stable on a cold, cold night<br /> and from which shines the greatest of lights<br /> <br /> Born in a manger filled with hay<br /> He fills our darkness with the brightest of days<br /> Born in poverty and rejected by the world<br /> as it rages on in euphemistic swirl<br /> <br /> The Saviour of the world and creator of all life<br /> invited us to be free from all negative strife<br /> He knocks and asks but never imposes<br /> He respects our freedom and completely knows us<br /> <br /> His voice the world just cannot hear<br /> for the world is caught up in tension and fear<br /> because of the absence of his love and grace<br /> which can make the earth a far better place<br /> <br /> Jesus our Saviour can free us from all sin<br /> His mother Mary inspired us to start again<br /> so the brightest light can shine on our souls<br /> and reach out to others, his glory to behold<br />   Submitted By: NULL
