The Passion Candle
Is like an early morning wait
For the doors of the Church to open
To go in and offer our homage.

The Passion Candle
Is like the mesmerizing shadows
That dance in the stillness of the night
It offers a never dwindling light.

The Passion Candle
Is like the show enchanter
Atop the decorated wreath
Igniting a fire of great hope.

The Passion Candle
Is a never aging Candle
The green leaves that support it
Holds steadfast the faith in our hearts.

The Passion Candle
Is the warmest candle of all
It sets in the scene for Christmas
To kneel before the Babe only.

The Passion Candle
Is an attractive candle as well
The shades of Purple and Pink
Seals the colours of the Advent season.

The Passion Candle
Is a story telling Candle
The flames speak of the greatest love
How God came down to earth to save us all.

The Passion Candle
Is an adorable candle too
It keeps us gaze at it in longing
Until we can light the white one for Christ.

The Passion Candle
Is the most awaited candle of the year
It heralds in the most beautiful time
As it turns into the Christmas Candle
To burn in a never going out flame
For many more birthdays of the Lord.
