Preparing For Christmas Prayer

I wrote this before the morning began unfolding
And tidiness was filled with the happy sound of children playing.

Bottom right: It's not everyone that gets a lion-audience while cutting carrot-sticks! lol;-)

 Lord, fill us with Perfect Reason

Not to suffer worry's stress

Let the wonder of the Season

Thrill our hearts with happiness

Lord, turn our gaze this Christmas

From wish-lists that drive us wild

Make our mission one of gladness

Celebrating the Christ Child

Dear Lord, let the hope of Jesus

Crush the demons of despair

Let the joy of that First Christmas

Wake in us love’s living prayer

Lord, make our heart a stable
Welcoming Jesus again

Make our worship fit for angels
Peace on earth, goodwill to men

 When the angels had left them and gone into heaven,
the shepherds said to one another,
 "Let's go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened,
which the Lord has told us about."
Luke 2:15

  I love Charlie Pride's Christmas songs!
