In Hushed Tones!

[image error]

In hushed tones we wait

For the arrival of the Newborn Babe.

Who will bring light,

Hope and peace to a world

Teetering on the brink of despair.

In hushed tones, we see

The Three Wise Men’s

Silhouettes pass through

The night and follow the

Guiding Star’s direction.

In hushed tones, we see

Them presenting their gifts and

Placing them around the Babe’s manger.

In hushed tones we sing

Alleluia or Ava Maria and

Songs of reverence as we

Acknowledge that there is

An assurance of spiritual leadership.

In hushed tones, we sigh and wait

For the Christ within each of us

To awaken as we cleave to

All that is possible.

Hush now and listen.
