Once upon a time,
In a city far away.
A baby laid all
swaddled,
The only comfort…hay.
In humblest
beginnings,
The Savior came to
save.
Born of a virgin,
Mary,
This was God’s chosen
way.
He could have dropped
out of Heaven,
He could rule by gavel
or sword,
But instead He came as
a baby,
This infant is also
our Lord.
How gracious our
loving Savior,
Who took on our flesh
to live.
For my sin earns a
punishment I cannot pay,
But by His blood, He
can forgive.
So in this Christmas
season,
With every gift you
get,
Contemplate the
greatest gift of all,
Jesus humble birth and
sin-crushing death.

Romans 5:8 “God
demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners,
Christ died for us.”
John 3:16 “For God so
loved the world, that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in
Him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
Have you receive this
gift by faith and trusted Jesus Christ as your Savior? If not, I hope you
receive it today. Merry Christmas y’all!
