Just Before Christmas

A Star Led the Way
By: the iHope Poet

Think of the moments inside of the shed,
Where the lost couple with donkey were led.
Darkness and noises and rough, lowly straw,
Just before Jesus was laid in the stall.

Shepherds were sleeping, in darkness and cold.
Think of the joy angels came to make known!
Fear was erased as they followed the light,
Just before finding the babe in the night.

Wisemen were sent to confirm what was heard,
following stars in the dark of the world.
Think of the miracle, witnessed at last,
Just before choosing to never go back.

Think of the blessing God sent from above,
Mary and child and Heavenly love.
Light took the darkness, a star led the way;
Think of the angels that never did stray.

Circled with family, and spirit, and peace,
Put up the lights and nativity scenes.
Think of your love for the gift that He gave,
Just before singing of Jesus this day.
