Happy Christmas!
I do love this poem by Mary Baker Eddy - it has been in my thought for the last week leading up to Christmas day. It really brings to mind the eternality of the Christ idea, which Jesus exemplified in every aspect of his life - from the special circumstances of his birth to the way he lived his life and taught others to the gift of his resurrection and ascension. The Christ is here - always and in all ways. How wonderful to have this time to pause to appreciate and celebrate this great gift from God!
Much peace and joy to all during the holiday and through the new year!
Blest Christmas morn, though murky clouds
Pursue thy way,
Thy light was born where storm enshrouds
Nor dawn nor day!
Dear Christ, forever here and near,
No cradle song,
No natal hour and mother's tear,
To thee belong.
Thou God-idea, Life-encrowned,
The Bethlehem babe —
Beloved, replete, by flesh embound —
Was but thy shade!
Thou gentle beam of living Love,
And deathless Life!
Truth infinite, — so far above
All mortal strife,
Or cruel creed, or earth-born taint:
Fill us today
With all thou art — be thou our saint,
Our stay, alway.
Much peace and joy to all during the holiday and through the new year!
Blest Christmas morn, though murky clouds
Pursue thy way,
Thy light was born where storm enshrouds
Nor dawn nor day!
Dear Christ, forever here and near,
No cradle song,
No natal hour and mother's tear,
To thee belong.
Thou God-idea, Life-encrowned,
The Bethlehem babe —
Beloved, replete, by flesh embound —
Was but thy shade!
Thou gentle beam of living Love,
And deathless Life!
Truth infinite, — so far above
All mortal strife,
Or cruel creed, or earth-born taint:
Fill us today
With all thou art — be thou our saint,
Our stay, alway.
