In A World of Endless Changes

In a world of endless changes
Were nothing stays the same
God’s love is like a beacon
That everyone can claim
His joys he spreads around us
With gifts both far and near
His message full of caring
The deafest ear can hear
Some think they are not worthy
To bathe in his sweet light
But in the eyes of heaven
All things we do are right
So count your many blessings
That you receive each day
Then you’ll become a lantern
Of loves light in full display

SILENT ANGELS

THOSE SILENT ANGELS

THAT STAND AND STARE

TO WATCH US WRESTLE

WITH ALL OUR CARES

THEY ONLY NEED

FOR US TO ASK

THEN THEY WILL HELP

WITH ALL OUR TASKS

AND IF BY CHANCE

WE HAVE TO LEARN

THEY’LL STAND ASIDE

AND SHOW CONCERN

THEY’LL DRY OUR EYES

FROM ALL OUR TEARS

THEN GUARD US FROM

OUR HIDDEN FEARS

AND WHAT’S THE PRICE

WE HAVE TO PAY

TO RECEIVE THESE GIFTS

EVERY SINGLE DAY

IT’S JUST A SIMPLE

THANK YOU

Christmas Angel

I met the Christmas Angel
While walking in a wood
The trees they kept so quiet
But then I knew they would
The things that I’d been thinking
The Angel seemed to know
As she placed her wings around me
To warm me from the snow
Though snowflakes danced in patterns
I didn’t really care
Protected by that Angel
Inside a wood so bare
She pointed to the treetops
To make sure I could see
The sleigh of Father Christmas
Go sliding by each tree
The reindeers looked upon us
As if we were the show
Just me and the Christmas Angel
Standing down below

Thought to Ponder – “Christmas is built upon a beautiful and intentional paradox; that the birth of the homeless should be celebrated in every home.”-G K Chesterton.
