Glorious Gift

From our family to yours, Merry Christmas





...and last but not least, the youngest who would not
shift from this expression 😂😅😆
(which is why I didn't push for a pic of the three together)



2 Cor.9:15
Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift!

No joy to comfort groaning grief
No hope to cheer the soul 
No faith to counter unbelief
Or make our spirits whole

No Light to pierce the sin-dark world
No peace, no battle won
No everlasting love unfurled
For each and everyone

No healing from our wounds within
No cross, no Christendom 
No forgiveness for our sin
If Jesus had not come

No escape then from death and hell
No captive chains undone
No Saviour, because mankind fell
If Jesus had not come

No Heaven for all who believe
Satan, not overthrown
No deathless promise to receive
If Jesus had not come

So as we celebrate, oh pray
With gladdened hearts we lift
A hymn of praise this Christmas day  
For God's glorious gift
