Poem

Emperor Augustus made a decree
No option was given to disagree
Each person must travel to their own town
To take the census ordered by the crown

The census occurred to figure the tax
Emotions were tense, no one could relax
Though family matters called for delay
Joseph made the decision to obey

They made the journey, Mary great with child
Up to Bethlehem, now busy and riled
Unable to acquire a resting place
A stable was located by God’s grace

In this environment, rude, cold, and cruel
A baby was born, a heavenly jewel
In that lonely barn smelling of manure
They fashioned a bed for this child so pure

In the atmosphere of Caesar’s command
The crowds failed to notice what God had planned
To accomplish a mission of high degree
God sent His son as heaven’s deportee

But to the shepherds on the hillsides near
A throng of singing angels did appear
Their voices could not hold back the story,
Of His majesty, purpose, and glory

This child would address man’s misbehavior
Through sacrifice, forgive, be our savior
Deliver us from sinful sways and strays
Bring peace to all who would follow His ways

The shepherds hurried to town with great glee
One so marvelous they wanted to see
Seeing, they reported all that they knew
Jesus is His name, He came to save you.
