Hello, Friend!
Advent begins in a couple of weeks, and Eleanor and I are already feeling it! The anticipation of that first Christmas, when our King was born as a human being, is remembered every year with much joy and mirth! Even more important, it reminds us that He will come again, and next time not as a wee babe!
When I hear the beautiful lines about dark streets and the everlasting Light, I not only think of Bethlehem but also of our own sometimes dark streets. They can be very dark, indeed. Nevertheless, the everlasting Light will shine forth and bring the hope that only the Messiah can give! We look forward to his return!
O Little Town of Bethlehem
O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The everlasting Light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight
For Christ is born of Mary
And gathered all above
While mortals sleep, the angels keep
Their watch of wondering love
O morning stars together
Proclaim the holy birth
And praises sing to God the King
And Peace to men on earth
How silently, how silently
The wondrous gift is given!
So God imparts to human hearts
The blessings of His heaven.
No ear may hear His coming,
But in this world of sin,
Where meek souls will receive him still,
The dear Christ enters in.
O holy Child of Bethlehem
Descend to us, we pray
Cast out our sin and enter in
Be born to us today
We hear the Christmas angels
The great glad tidings tell
O come to us, abide with us
Our Lord Emmanuel
