His Birth

By Gerald S. Sumeracki

Twas a clear crisp evening
The stars were shining bright
The shepherds in the fields about
Enjoyed the peaceful night.

On camels journeyed wise men
They bound for Bethlehem
In search of Him to be born there
The King they'd call the Lamb.

The star the wise men followed
A beacon to their eyes
Was marvel to the shepherds too
As gazed they at the skies.

A music filled the heavens
As angels joined in praise
"Rejoice you earthly creatures
Christ's birth has blessed your days."

A vision to the shepherds
Did lead them to the place
Where little baby Jesus lay
Messiah to the race.

The Wise Men found the infant
As shepherds knelt in awe
They thanked the Lord Almighty
For fulfillment of His law.

All men who know the prophets
And seek the promised Dove
Will know the Savior of the world
He brought us all God's Love.
