As we ponder Christmas time
And contemplate the season,
Help us remember the Christ,
For He is the true reason
That we celebrate Christmas
And make such jubilation:
He brought glad tidings of peace
And the gift of salvation.
So, just another Christmas?
Oh, no, may it never be.

POEM
Jesus! whose blood so freely stream’d
To satisfy the law’s demand;
By Thee from guilt and wrath redeem’d,
Before the Father’s face I stand.
To reconcile offending man,
Make Justice drop her angry rod;
What creature could have form’d the plan,
Or who fulfill it but a God?
No drop remains of all

Poem by Will Carleton
“Boys flying kites haul in
their white-winged birds;
You can’t do that way when
you’re flying words:
‘Careful with fire,’ is good advice
we know,
‘Careful with words,’ is ten times
doubly so.
Thoughts expressed

To weep is to risk appearing sentimental
To reach out for another is to risk involvement
To expose feelings is to risk exposing, your true self
To place your ideas, your dreams before a crowd is to

[A Christmas Poem]
The King of Kings, the Lord of Lords
Came to earth for you and me.
The salvation I could not afford
He paid for on Calvary.
What could I ever give Him
That would thank Him for His Son?
I’ll confess, and turn from my sin
And live in the victory won!
I often lose sight
