A Second Star Story On Christmas

A Second Star Story from Christmas Twinkle Twinkle Little Star Up above the world so far. Leading wise men to the place A baby came to save his race. But, alas. Men’s greedy hearts That’s where trouble always starts Some have more than I can gather Others may have what I would rather There’s oft a line that’s drawn between The outcome oft so easily seen Someone strikes out. The fight is on No one will stop until they’ve won Until at last, we”turn the cheek” Revenge is what our “neighbors” seek How many millions must fill the graves Because some bullies just can’t behave? Would this prove the only star To bring its comfort down so far? Would there be in years to come We might sort out, yet another one? Could it be a Star of Peace & Rest Would find its way into human’s breast. To offer them a place to turn To contemplate and maybe learn To serve mankind as a shining beacon Some real help that man’s been seekin’ Yes there’s that one that rose above To prove existence of undying love. This same babe we’ve spoken of Was later called out by a dove The great Messiah, God’s own son The Star of Peace, the final one. He would not turn away from death He loved us all with his last breathe That we might live from shore to shore There’d never need be war no more If that is true, what’s said above Why is there war and not real love? Because ‘til all proclaim “Him” King Only strife will mankind bring. Written by oldbuck Dec 3, 2017 as he looks forward to “Peace On Earth” Good Will Toward All Men. SIDE NOTE: Some folks believe, the Star of Peace rests firmly on Matt Dillon’s chest, while others feel Christ forever wears it best.
