Light

The reason for the season is light
Some small some powerful in might
The oil of provision for days
Heavens mysterious ways
The star that shown far away
Giving earth the promised display
A journey,  as dark as it seemed
Was revelation of heavenly dreams
Subtle,  impoverished, alone
Who could imagine Him holding a throne
Once angels beheld him in awe
Now only a family,  in the straw
The world rejected the sign
It didn't match up with divine
Insignificant not bright enough
Only it was a different shade of love.
Light in the dark has a name
Sometimes its a flickering flame
Heads turn at a holy fire
But sometimes subtle is higher
Its hard to believe a story
When its not regaled in glory
Who will come to behold
A promise more priceless than gold?
Hurried are we, unaware
Of the loss that heaven has beared.
Til the invisible light reaches hearts
Doubt and distraction will part
Souls will rest in the light
Of the miracle that took place that night.
Merry Christmas
