There’s a song in the air!
There’s a star in the sky!
There’s a mother’s deep prayer
and a baby’s low cry!
And the star rains its fire while the beautiful sing
For the manger in cradles a King!
*I’ll look forward to seeing many of you on Sunday, morning and/or evening. If you’re traveling, come home safe. And to all: MERRY CHRISTMAS!
