OUR CHRISTMAS GIFT

This day has dragged so slowly toward eve

All is not well on this Christmas Eve

The house is filled with a sense of dread

Our mother is in need of a gift of life

A brother across the sea is the only hope

We lit the star atop our tree for a sign

A knock at the door just now, and there is Uncle John

Now our Christmas can be complete with happiness

As I race upstairs to thank the Lord

I wonder if that little star has helped
