Is it just Christmas, again,
In a world of war and sin?
Another year of tinsel and paper,
Of glamorous gifts (paid for later)
Of loveless homes and empty lives,
And husbands separate from their wives?
Another day, the same as last,
The only difference, a year has past?
No, this year can be,
A joyous, Christian reality.
A year when Christ is personal,
Yes, more than an a year, eternal,
The Lord of your life, and heart.
If not now, then now start. -eab, 11/67
Written while instructor of literature at Hobe Sound Bible College, Martin County, Florida.

“Silent Night” (stanzas 2,3)
Silent night, holy night,
Shepherds quake at the sight;
Glories stream from heaven afar,
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia!
Christ the Savior is born,
Christ the Savior is born!
Silent night, holy night,
Son of God, love’s pure light;
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace,
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth,
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth.
Josef Mohr was born this date in 1792 in Salzburg, Austria. He died 12/5/1848.
