Some say that Christmas is for kids
nevertheless it’s far more than that, Lord…
Christmas is for kids
as a result of Christmas is for everybody...
Christmas is for the kid in every of us
– or higher but –
Christmas involves discover the kid in every of us,
to rescue the kid inside,
to revive the kid inside us
to innocence, simplicity and style…
Christmas comes as a present, a Youngster:
dependent, weak and bare,
ready and eager to be held and embraced,
to be cared for, liked and identified…
Come and embrace the kid inside us,
come and maintain us in your arms,
come, Lord, and maintain us near your coronary heart,
beating as one with ours…
Christmas is for kids, Lord,
so Christmas comes for every of us:
be born anew in our coronary heart of hearts,
and restore inside us a childlike grace…
Shield us, Lord, whereas we’re awake
and watch over us whereas we sleep
that awake, we would preserve watch with you
and asleep, relaxation in your peace…
Amen.
Tonight’s music is a tender jazz instrumental.
Lyrics have been later added and although not on this recording,
I’ve added them on your prayer whereas listening…
Now, out of the night time
New because the daybreak
Into the sunshine
This Youngster
Harmless
Youngster
Tender as a fawn
This Youngster is born
One small coronary heart
One pair of eyes
One murals
Right here in my arms
Right here he lies
Trusting and heat
Blessed this morn
A Youngster is born
Creation Blessing
