Another Gift

ANOTHER GIFT Another gift was by the tree, And strange it seemed that gift to see. ‘Twas wrapped in swaddling clothes and rest Next to a mother’s loving breast. It seemed so tiny and so small; ‘Twas hardly much a gift at all, Yet when I knew there on that night That this gift was God’s own gift of light, I took it and I held it there As I accepted Him in prayer. It was my greatest gift of all As I received it when I called, For it gave me a brand new life When I accepted Jesus Christ, This gift of God to men in sin To fill my life and live within. I know now that by His great grace Some day I’ll see Him face to face.
