Advent: Week Two

Where is one life

      that would see

      then choose

      the gift of Love

      through the ordinary,

      the simple

      coming of a child:

                  Jesus Christ as Savior

Where are two humble shepherds

      watching through the long, dark night,

      silently, quietly waiting,

      preparing their hearts

      to receive

      the coming of angels,

      the manifestation of Glory:

                  Jesus Christ as Lord.

Where are the remnant three,

      three wise men

      who would come

      present their hearts as gifts

      in sacrifice,

      and worship Him:

                  Jesus Christ as King.

Is it I, Lord?

I hear You calling me to Life.

I will choose the quiet waiting.

I will stay the long, dark night.

I will be amongst the remnant.

I will give my heart to You.

I shall manifest Your Glory.

I shall be Your Christmas Story.
