Poetry
The treasures of Christmas
Aren't found 'neath the tree,
They're found in the stillness
Within you and me.
God's Son sent to offer
Forgiveness of sin,
The gift of His presence,
His Spirit within.
Fulfillment, contentment,
A purpose for living,
These are but a few
Of the gifts He keeps giving.
He wants us to know Him,
He longs to reveal
His heart of compassion,
And woundedness heal.
He offers this treasure
Not wrapped up in bows,
A Savior, Redeemer,
In love He bestows.
He offered His life,
Paid the price for our sin,
And once we accept it
New life we begin.
But gifts can't be given
Unless they're received,
In accepting this treasure
God's Word we believe.
The treasure of Christmas
Is Jesus, God's Son,
His love's freely offered
It cannot be won.
