Blessed Christmas to you all!

At the centre of the ages
The Lord talks with a girl;
And by the words He speaks
He gives the Saviour to the world.
When time grows to its fullness
And Mary's son is born
The promise's fulfillment
Lies asleep now in her arms.

He didn't come to terrify,
To judge or condescend;
To call us all His servants,
But to lift us as His friends;
To save us all from Satan's power
To reign at His right hand,
From the little town of Bethlehem
Where God became a man.

- Don Fransisco
