Walking in God's world as friends,
something too good to be priced,
learning from His means and ends,
that's Jesus (the bloody) Christ.
Folk learning from who's above,
come to earth in God’s good plan,
when acting out that great love,
reflect more the shining man.
This culture blames and curses
the one it do’n’t understand,
won’t submit, only versus,
his world-view, and what he planned.
The babe born (by many views)
absolutely innocent,
didn't catch the evening news
(except where 'is family went),
in a world made by God's word,
with hopeful glades where both trod;
that's the one who mostly heard,
then obeyed, and walked, with God;
we want to walk just like him:
make sure we talk from list'nin',
and not just baulk, then give in,
to the evil that is sin.
God we need your help just now;
within us, but outside too,
to never give-in or bow,
to what's cut itself from you.
Some two thousand Christmases
later, we are glad he came,
and I’m glad that some others
joined to celebrate, not blame!
(Heard that Dave O'Rozco &
Arno hope to join me on
pilgrimage through God's South Land;
God, we'll need your help and song!)
* If the first Xmas was at zero, then the 2015th would be in 2014CE. This is rough though because an error made in the original judgement means that Jesus was probably born within ten years of zero, possibly about 5 or 7BCE.
