[hometext] =>
[bodytext] => This is the morning of the Lord and His Babe, Who was sent to this world ~ Simply to save, The sun is up ~ Still all is quiet, In reflective manner ~ His story the diet, Remembering all ~ Given and lost, Surveying the past ~ Knowing the cost, Realizing that this manor is blessed, Even though all sins have not been confessed, This little scrap of earth fresh with dew, Protected by knowing ~ That His words are true, A babe also slumbers within these walls, Knowing he is given and can be recalled, Outside these walls ~ This land grows weary, As fewer believe and memories grow blurry, Apathy spreads as God’s Word is denied, And a wonderful land is losing her Guide, Conscience is lost ~ As violence spreads, The truth is slain ~ Leading to more bloodshed, A world with no peace ~ Is a loss to mankind, Hatred and greed is how our babe’s will dine, Shutting out the world can no longer be done, The world needs God ~ And our babes need His Son.
