Christmas is once again here

The time of giving and the time of cheer

But most of all it is the time

To be thankful for the blessings this year


I have so much to be thankful for

I know not where to start

Thankful I can see and feel

Thankful for each beat of my heart


For the family and friends

Their love and their care

For the times we’ve spent together

The memories that we share


Thankful for opportunities

The laughter and the tears

Thankful for God’s grace

When alone and in fear


Thankful that I am able to give

That I have plenty on my side

Thankful for the chance

To show love and do right


To learn and to grow

Each and every day

Thankful for the kindness

Received in every way


But most of all I am thankful

That if everything that was given was gone

I would be received at heaven’s door

Because my Saviour was born


Merry Christmas everyone!

The night was cold and dark

The shepherds drew lambs to their hearts

Across the valleys and hills a cool wind blew

Drawing the grass apart


Huddling by the fire

A shepherd sang a song

Poking a crackling fire

Ready for the night so long


Then a bright light

Caught his dazzled eyes

And he turned them heavenward

Towards the star studded sky


And behold there was a star

Shinning in the night

Eclipsing all others

With its beauty and light


It drew and beckoned

And suddenly the heavens burst open

The air was filled with angel songs

And by the star’s light the shepherds were drawn


Towards a little village

Of seemingly no importance

Worn down with age

Completely impassioned


The atmosphere was joyful

Yet apprehensive as they drew nearer

To a newly born child

Asleep in the manger


His hands shaking slightly

The shepherd touched the child

He stirred and looked up

And a miracle he smiled!


Then a while later

The shepherd was back at his fire

Gazing up at the star

His heart felt warmer


And he watched never knowing

That it was the first Christmas night

And the star shinning so brightly

Was the Saviour’s heralding light


Merry Christmas everyone!

I don’t understand why we are doing this

I am warrior, we are trained to fight

But Joshua has us marching round this wall

Ever since first light


Shouldn't we storm the city?

Look the people jeer from the walls!

Anger courses through me

Do they think we are that small?


Shall we not fight back?

What will this walking do?

In absolute silence we march

And waiting for God too


Six days he said we will march

And on the seventh blow our horns

Though I remember he gave water in deserts parched

What good is blowing a horn?


No, this doesn't make sense

I try to tell Joshua so

But he told me to march on

On the Lord’s word we will go


Days pass and the seventh is here

I carefully raise my horn

Together we blow loudly

The loudest since we were born


The next second feels

Like a sound from hell

I feel a rumble and turn around

Oh my God! The wall fell!
