If there had never been a Christmas
..or the Holy Christ Child's birth,
Or the angels singing in the sky
..of promised peace on earth--
What
would the world be like today
..with no eternal goal,
What would the temporal body be
..without a living soul?
Just
what would give us courage
..to push on when hope is dead
Except the Christmas message
..and the words our Father said--
"In
love I send My only Son
..to live and die for you,
And through His resurrection
You will gain a new life, too."
