Some folks are so broken, much time and resources they do take
Time with them is exhausting,
from such efforts we need a break
There are those who like to
argue, they have venom in their veins
Their souls cannot find satisfaction
unless they hold the reigns
Some neglect truth and justice, bound
by the pace of status quo
Squelching hope and progress, leaving
souls to wither and plateau.
Yet into this world of darkness
came a great glorious light
Illuminating fear and blackness with
a beam shining bright
Stepping into the confusion,
devilish minds did deploy
Overriding deep division,
increasing faith, love, and joy
Lifting burdens from our
shoulders, rough and heavy was the freight
Giving courage to the weary as we
struggle with life’s weight
This strength and light came
through a child, from a woman he was born
A son with God’s genetics,
heavens gift to a world forlorn
He came to give counsel, teaching
us to walk paths that are right
He came as the savior, to forgive
and redeem from sin’s might
He gave us this mission, to tell the
world of his work and love
Spread the story of salvation, of
eternal life above
As we continue earth’s journey,
filled with sorrow, grief, and death
Dealing with pain and conflict
until we take our final breath
When our hearts seem heavy, when
there is no jingle in our soul
By grace through faith look to
the Christ child, keep heaven as our goal
While on earth love and serve
him, until the time of our release
Then We’ll gather in the throne
room, and worship the Prince of Peace
