" 'THAT' CHRISTMAS DAY!"

{Poem Book 8}
Merry CHRISTmas Bells are ringing ~
Glad Hosanna's ~ with Joyous singing ~
"JESUS CHRIST The King has COME!"
Laying in a manger bed *
with only 'straw' beneath His Head!
Leaving vast riches to come to Earth,
So that we could have ~ a 'New Birth'!
Our sins ~ forever ~
could be washed away,
Because JESUS came
'that' CHRISTmas Day!
Do you 'believe' He came for you,
To bleed & die & suffer, too?
I hope & pray you DO believe,
Then 'Eternal Life' you can receive!
COME to Christ
'just as you are',
He'll help you overcome
& lift that mire!
Free of deep sin & shame ~ at last,
Healing our wounds & all our past!
'Lifting' our burdens
as we give them to Him,
Never-more to drown
because we can win!
Aren't you glad that JESUS came,
Don't you want to wear ~ His Sweet Name?
Never to carry our burdens alone,
Because now CHRIST sits upon His Throne!
Interceding in Prayer just for us,
Telling The Father ~ that He is 'Just'!
His Blood now covers
& cleanses us daily,
If we submit
& come to Him DAILY.
Merry CHRISTmas to ALL
& I hope you are FREE,
Singing with 'Joy'
& full of glee.
May this CHRISTmas be different
deep in your Soul,
As you yield your spirit
to The Savior's Control.
Then sing 'Hallelujah'
with a warm sweet smile,
Knowing God's going with you
that 'extra' mile!
When things go wrong
& circumstances fail,
Regardless of 'what'
JESUS won't fail!
An 'overcoming' spirit
will take over your heart,
Then you'll know for sure
you won't want to depart ~
from our Precious Lord Jesus
The Great Giver of Life ~
For He is The 'Bridegroom' *
& we are His wife! *
Living ~forever in Heaven~
some sweet Day,
Because JESUS came
as a Babe ~ 'THAT' DAY!
MERRY CHRISTMAS 2001!
Patricia & Family!
