The First Christmas

The First Christmas
NJ lGHT had descended
i upon the hills Of Judea.
All was hushed and still; the
earth and heavens seemed
resting in a great deep
calm. No sound came to
; break the Stiffness. Even the
humble shepherd men who
watched their nocks were
silent-they, too, felt the
deep thrill and mystery of
the night. Humble and un-
educated as they were, they
. could not fathom what it all
meant, but in their hearts
was a senses of awe and Won
derment that kept them ST.
lont.
Then on the darkness of
the night there came out Of
the heavens a dazzling light
and the shepherds were
frightened. Rut an angel of
the Lord was standing beside
them and in a voice that
found its way to their very
hearts fold them to fear not.
rather to rejoice instead, for
he was bringing them tidings
of great iOy. that the long
looked fer Savior had been
born that night in Bethle-
hem of Judea. And when
this angel had finished
speaking the glory of heaven
shone brighter all about
them, and looking up they
beheld a multitude Of the
heavenly host praising God
and sin,ing the song that
has echoed since through All
the ages: GLORY to God in
the highest and on earth
peace to men of good will"
After the angels had de. :.
parted and the dazzling light
had vanished from the hill
+. side the shepherds whispered
among themselves, and they
decided to leave their hocks
and go to the little town of
Bethlehem, as tie angel had
told them. Over the hills
and valleys they went. never
piiusing until they came to
:. the humble stable where the
Savior lay. There they
prostrated themselves at His
feet, praising God for the
thing that had come TO pass.
and telling Mary, His moth
er, and Joseph of what they
had seen and heard that
night.
Then they departed from
His presence and went their
way, telling all whom they
met of the Savior's coming.
