Gazing out my window
The sky is a canvas of stars
Glittering every one in splendor
With the nearest brightest by far.
Twinkle, Twinkle, brightest star
Making the night aglow
Dancing and shimmering you are
Shining your light below.
Awesome sight to behold
On this starry night
Tonight a story is told
Of another star so bright.
Shining over a tiny village
Where no room was found.
The time had come to pilfer
Taxes from those around.
The animals were asleep
Upon the piles of hay
No room, said the keep
And turned them away.
The Father sent angels
To give notice of His birth
The shepherds stood amazed
To see them here on earth.
The people slept aloft
The animals sheltered below
So Jesus was laid in a trough
Aside the sheep that lowed.
The King of Kings was born
Good Tidings to all mankind
Our Savior He would be
He will take our sins,
YOURS AND MINE
THE REASON TO REJOICE
TODAY AND EVERYDAY!!
