The Morning Star’s Light ~

A single star shinning,
on a moonless night
God’s gift to the world
wrapped up in the Light.

Wise men make the journey,
from places east and far
in search for what they know
will be the Morning Star.

With gifts they set out,
to the town of Bethlehem
to find the Babe, the Savior
who came not to condemn.

And so they came to be,
face to face with their King
knowing He was the Prince
who eternal peace would bring.

One single, solitary star,
still beckons the world today
to follow the Light that leads . . .
to the Truth, Life and Way!

~~~~~~

John 8:12

“Then spake Jesus again unto them,
saying, I am the light of the world:
he that followeth me shall not
walk in darkness,
but shall have the light of life.”

Still The Wise Seek Him ~

Still the wise seek Him,
they look to the Morning Star
they follow where He may lead
no matter how near or far.

They come to praise Him,
to worship and to adore
the wise still seek will Him
as the ones did from before.

The wise still offer Him,
gifts from their hearts
their faith, trust and hope
on Him they impart.

They hunger and thirst,
after His righteousness
they seek the Life and Way
with wholeheartedness.

Still the wise seek Him,
this Babe, the Child, their Savior
for they know He is God’s gift . . .
of His love, mercy and favor!

Matthew 2:9-10

“When they had heard
the king, they departed; and,
lo, the star, which they saw
in the east, went before them,
till it came and stood
over where the young child was.
When they saw the star,
they rejoiced with exceeding
great joy.”

Have a Merry CHRISTmas and a Blessed New Year

#throwbackpoem ~ On This CHRISTmas Morn ~

A promise to the world,
a child to be given . . .
so many years foretold
so all could be forgiven.

Moonless night shining,
with the Morning Star
calling watchful shepherds
to come from afar.

Wise Men carry gifts,
meant for only a King
angels up in heaven
Glory ~ Glory ~ sing.

God became a man,
the Good News is born
begotten Son arrives
on this CHRISTmas morn.

Our mighty God concedes,
to the wickedness of man
the Prince of Peace comes
to bridge the empty span.

Wonderful is His name,
Counselor to the meek
the Son was born of flesh
to give power to the weak.

Our everlasting Father,
knows our fallen state
so He sent His only Son
to save us from our fate.

A promise to the world,
our Lord and Savior is born
sing ~ Praises to His Glory ~
on this CHRISTmas morn.

The Morning Star ~

The Morning Star,
today is shining bright
for unto the world came
God’s redeeming Light.

A child, a babe,
God’s begotten Son
into the world He came
to save each and everyone.

For, to all of those,
who trust and believe
His love and grace

A Savior born,
many years ago
so on us God’s mercy
He could bestow.

The Morning Star,
still shines bright today
to Light the path
of the Life and Way!

A Meeting In the Clouds ~

Lord, my Rock,
my salvation
I wait for You
with anticipation.

I know someday,
You will appear
come quickly Jesus
my heart cheers.

Lord, my Savior,
my soul awaits
for the day
darkness abates.

The Morning Star,
will shine so bright
the day I see
salvation’s light.

Lord, of my life,
do not tarry
come and make
my heart merry.

I’m ready to be caught,
up in the air . . .
I can hardly wait
to meet You there!

~~~~~~

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17

“For the Lord himself shall
descend from heaven
with a shout, with the voice
of the archangel,
and with the trump of God:
and the dead in Christ
shall rise first: when we
which are alive and remain
shall be caught up together
with them in the clouds,
to meet the Lord in the air:
and so shall we ever be
with the Lord”
