">(Often during this holiday season, we get wrapped up easily in the commericalism of this special day that sometimes we lose sight of what we're really honoring, the birth of a Son whose gift to us all is a love that's priceless and is of great value to all our hearts. For all the children of the world, and for all the children that live on in all of our hearts, wishing peace on Earth and to be reminded Jesus lives in each of us, always lending His loving hand to the hungry, weak and poor! God Bless You All and Happy Holidays!)  A Savior is Born By: Noah Eaton 12/21/02 So the story begins in the land of Judah Where lived a man named Isaiah A vision was bestowed upon his mind Claiming the Lord shall offer us a sign "Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son" for you and me The government will be lifted on his shoulders He will be our King, our counselor And He'll direct us with the keenest of judgment Where the morning star hangs like a pendant And some day in the town of Nazareth Hope will be born, you will all be blessed And the angels they glow Inside of you The fire, it burns Children, you know the truth The cherubs they weep Love shall endure evermore Children, show me a smile For our Savior is born...  Gabriel visited Mary one faithful day with a truth Said "Mary, God has been gracious for you!" You will give birth and name this son Jesus The Son of the Most High God, so prepare for this engagement She questioned why she was a virgin His power would rest in her, he mentioned Such a gift would be inevitable Such an uncertainty is improbable And Gabriel met Joseph, a commoner Wanting to break the marriage, but reconsidered Marry this woman, and all will be well For God will be with us, all resting in our Emmanuel And the angels they glow Inside of you The fire, it burns Children, you know the truth The cherubs they weep Love shall endure evermore Children, show me a smile For our Savior is born... Mary and Joseph registered for the census in Bethlelem Where she'd give birth to this child, as Gabriel had said There was no room at the hotel to give birth So this precious child was born in a nearby manger And out in the open field shepherds gathered round Where an angel appeared with a glory profound The angel spoke of the baby in swaddling clothes Offered them praises to recite to this miracle to behold And three wise men known as the Magi came from the east Reporting to Jerusalem they saw his star in the east King Herod and his people immediately exclaimed May we find out where we can find this Messiah  And the angels they glow Inside of you The fire, it burns Children, you know the truth The cherubs they weep Love shall endure evermore Children, show me a smile For our Savior is born... Herod assembled his priests and learned of his birth In Bethlelem, where begins such a mirth Where a new Governor will build an impregnable kingdom That will last forever and lift us all out of the doldrums The Magi studied that star and saw it once more slide To the place where such a love resides The three men knelt down and worshipped this boy Offering him gold and frankincense for this bundle of joy God warned them to stay away from Herod Where Jesus would be safe from what was cruel Celebrate, children of the world, celebrate............ .....................For God Sakes, celebrate today!  And the angels they glow Inside of you The fire, it burns Children, you know the truth The cherubs they weep Love shall endure evermore Children, show me a smile For our Savior is born... Gaze upon the angel on your tree And sing a praise with me He is gracious to you and Thee...  "You'll find something that's enough to keep you |

Unless we receive the kingdom of God as a little child we will not enter into it... I love how you begin with the prophetic coming of Jesus and how very well you tell the Christmas story with Biblical reference. Very very nice. I love your graphics of the little children and, yes, may the child within each one of us forevermore smile the birth of Jesus Christ, our Savior, Lord, and King -- and especially so on this day that we celebrate His birthday. Smiles and Merry Christmas! -Bob |
