THE CHRISTMAS STORY

Heap high the wood on the hrel
Give us Christmas blazel
Already the flames leap higher
And the raftered ceiling now plays
With the minglings Of shadow and enber
AS the winds and SHOWS In December
Recline In your chair and as the fire fits
Let's sit here quietly and sweetly remnisce
TITS a sacred and wonderful story
surrounded with mystery and glory,
And like all good narratives 1t takes
To far away lands, then forsakes us,
Only to leave us reminiscent
With indulgence and solace sificent
This story of Christmas, old
AS the fabulous Treasure Island gold
Is ever new and charming, a-glisten
Just sit In your chair and let's listen:
Twas centuries ago IN a far-oH land
On an evening so sacred and rare
That Eternal Creator took visible hand
And peryaded our atmosphere.
Twas towering event
without instance OF precedent
Bethlehems hills In their glory
Afre with terrestrial sheen
Are the pages wherein this story
Was chosen by God 10 have been.
The myriad stars gold-green in array,
shone silently. majesically after the close Of day.
The crimson sun already had covered
The crust OF the hills with its blood
Where the cave of Bethlehem Stood
And pause in story
To tremble before the event
The climax of heavens own glory
The redemption and settlement
The heavens leaped forth In their glory
As the shepherds all rushed from their tent
Already the news had been spoken:
Just now the Christ Child was born
They hastened DER spaces In token
Their hearts beat faster and louder,
AS their minds all cool understood
All Heaven was crowding about her
The Mother Of God and her Broodl
All Heaven exuant and joyful
Broke forth IN a welcoming cry,
The Infant OF Christmas so boyfu
Was Listening In Bethlehem Nigh
The Mother OF God now held Him
Closer In Swaddlng clothes
Good Joseph stood by and helped Him,
King of the hillg and the
The shepherds and angels mingled
In their unison OF welcome and song.
All Bethlehem rocked and tingled
with the Joy Of the heavenly throng.
Christ is borni Still. ye chors. and hearken
To the answer in the Infants sweet breast
1t has leaped and utterly taken
Precedence over the restl
It sings OF love and redemption
No wonder the Heavens still
What a power. this God-made intervention:
peace TO men OF good WIFI
And So In closing my story
I still feel the breath Of the glory
And the same with mankind I'd share
Just as II personally myself had been there!
so listen today TO that song Of good will,
That answer heavenly mild
And you'll live every day in Bethlehem still
In the embrace Of Bethlehems Child
Close not your hearts ON It's singing
But draw closer and with 1t comminglng
The Infant OF Christmas will sing 10 all men
His nrst Christmas Carol Of sweet Bethlehem
=. The embers Of the fire are dying
They fade before Bethlehems glow
And outside the winds go by flying
And the ground Is covered with snow.
So let IA withdraw and retire
And await tomorrows great dawn
Christmas will thrill u.s. inspire
And leave us 10 feast full upon
