A SHEPHERD BOY ~ Timothy Jon Barrett

Image
 A SHEPHERD BOY My Brothers and I were tending our flocks, on a clear and peaceful night. When up in the sky, a star appeared, it's brilliance strong and bright. As we gazed upon this glorious star, an Angel of God appeared. And spoke these words in the glory of God, there is nothing to be feared. I bring good tidings, the Angel said, good tidings filled with joy. For on this day a child is born, yes, a precious baby boy. A Savior is born upon this day, your Savior, Christ the Lord. In the city of David, you will find, this child to be adored. Then our Angel was suddenly not alone, but was joined by his Heavenly kin. Glory to God in the highest, they sang, peace on earth, good will to men. Then the Angels of God were gone away, the ones that God had sent. Filled with excitement, we gathered our flocks, and to Bethlehem we went. We told everyone we passed that night, even telling a total stranger. Til we found Joseph and...

Yes, Twas The Night

Yes, Twas The Night: Twas the night before Christmas And oh, what a spouse He'd hidden my present Somewhere in the house. The closets were bursting With so much to wear I searched and I searched I couldn't find it there. The drawers were so full That they couldn't be shut I looked and I ransacked And I'm not sure for what. And me, so excited and not able to sleep Just wanted one chance to find my present and peek When all of a sudden the clock started to chime If I couldn't find my present I would loose my mind. But then came a thought It was so loud and clear I had lost sight of Christmas What happened this year? I sprang from my bed and ran down the stairs Ran into the parlor and cried many tears I quick found my Bible and kneeled down to pray How did it happen? I'd lost Christmas that day. The Nativity lay there Nestled under the tree Silently speaking A message to me. I asked God...

A Train For Christmas ~ by Gertrude Jefferies

A Train For Christmas by Gertrude Jefferies Four eyes bright with excitement, Dirty faces pressed against the pane. While wishing hard with all their might, That for Christmas, they'd get a train. They'd been to this window often, Had counted the toys just for fun. If only on Christmas morning Under their tree, there would be just one. He and little brother Bobbie Came oft to this window to stare At the toys piled in this window, But knowing for them, none were there. This year they won't have a Christmas, This year there won't be any toys. No candy canes or oranges No pleasure for two little boys. Dad lost his job this past winter, He's been looking so hard each day, And when he gets home he's so tired He doesn't have too much to say. We all try so hard to cheer him But in his eye I saw a tear, When he sadly told my momma, For the boys, 'no Christmas this year.' She smiled her l...

It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Jesus 12-22-11

It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Jesus  12-22-11 : To the tune of: "It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas" It's beginning to look a lot like Jesus, everywhere we go. Take a look at the Christmas birth. Seeing it once again - it warms our hearts and makes our spirit's glow. It's beginning to look a lot like Jesus, miracles in store - but the prettiest sight to see is the baby that will be - that we can't ignore. With no pair of sandals and cross with no handles, He carried it right up until - the weight was tremendous, our actions horrendous - He fell halfway up the hill. The soldier men, so full of sin just wanted to torture and kill. It's beginning to look a lot like Jesus, as we knew before - so Christians must always be, like the Jesus that we see - in a world at war... ©2011 louis gander ALL RIGHTS RESERVED http://www.ganderpoems.org/ ------- Poetry On This Site Can Be ...

Then A Sweet Song Played ~ (A Christmas Song)

Then A Sweet Song Played (A Christmas Song) By Susan Y Nikitenko I was thinking today; With a grateful tear. What gift I should give; To Jesus this year. Then a sweet song played; Like a gentle kiss. A Christmas carol; And it went like this. I could hear my heart; I could hear it sing. A Christmas carol; Ring a ling a ling. Ring a ling a ling,... a ling...., a ling.... Ring a ling a ling,... a ling,.... a ling.... Just give him your heart; Wrap it with a bow. Just give Him your song;                                 For He loves you so.    (yes He does) Just give Him your time; Sprinkle it with faith. Just give Him your life; Trusting in His grace. Just give Him glory; On His special day. A merry Christmas;             ...
