[[image]] Christmas in the Heart The town and countryside alike Appear in festive glow, Magnified so brilliantly Against fresh-fallen snow. The shoppers now are gathering, The time is drawing near To celebrate the Christ Child's birth With old-time Christmas cheer. The smiles that we encounter Along our hurried way Add an extra special touch As we plan for this day. Gloriously, the day arrives To fill our lives with joy, Praising Lord and Savior In this Precious Baby Boy. Catherine Janssen Irwin 14 Christmas in the City Christmas Eve in the city Oh, the pleasure that it brings, All the yuletide decorations And the carolers as they sing. Snowflakes now are softly falling Making everything so white, Thoughts are turned to our Lord Jesus And His holy, righteous might. Stars are twinkling in the heavens, One is shining extra bright, Could it be the Star we're told of That lit the manger scene that night? In the morning all the children Will wake up with their eyes aglow And open gifts that we have given To show them that we love them so, Just as Wise Men did for Jesus, With gifts of frankincense and myrrh, To show their love for our dear Savior That now at long last He is here.
