God's Gift To Us

In a manger Christ was born.
No fancy robes by Him were worn.
But in His heart was Heaven’s gold.
As He grew this would unfold...

People sought His healing touch.
He healed lepers, poor and such.
He cut through tenets of the day,
The truths of God’s love to convey.

His life did not have fancy “wrappings”...
Raiment, finery or “trappings”.
But with wisdom He was rich.
In our hearts He would seek niche...

Welcome this pure “gift” of gold,
Your blessings will be manyfold.
When God sent His precious Son
To us His gift was “one-on-one”.

“God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.”
I John 4:16 KJV
