CHRISTMAS GREETINGS Vine tracings on my book - room screen Inspired this year my Christmas theme. A wooden cross - a window sash - ´tis true, But CHRIST´S EMBLEM - His message to you. From early childhood through the years Crosses have been our constant fears For in peace and war and its aftermath They´ve clung to us along life´s path. Crosses of white - red-double-and gold All have a message - Characters to mold: Each cross a symbol, CHRIST´S - SALVATION His sacred cross, humanity´s consolation. His cross alone - like a beacon light Which dispels darkness of the night Will lighten our crosses - heavy, indeed. Faith in I.H.S. - What better daily creed? The Chimes peal out each Christmas morn The Joyful Tidings - "CHRIST is born PEACE ON EARTH - GOOD WILL TOWARDS MEN" The Star of Bethlehem brings hope again. May Yule Tide abound with right good cheer A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS - A HAPPY NEW YEAR With joy and hope and COURAGE every hour Is the Christmas wish of BERTHA BAUR. 1934
