Christmas

Christmas, a time for decoration
Making a balance in colour in a tree
Ivy and pineapples, big and small
Placing little lights for inspiration

And yet, it seemed so common
There was emptiness, in every preparation
Greeting and eating, like the years before
It changed, with a simple question

Could you pray for me?
And we held hands, united in Jesus name
Praying for blessing and guidance
This, was what Christmas should be

God with us, Immanuel
His presence in our midst, not just a name
Changing our lives, filling our hearts
Being together, with Him, felt well
