Christmas Morn

Brilliant sun, blinding light
 casting shadows in day escaping night,
the warm and steady rise of the sun
 embracing cold and dark as the day is done,
mid-December warm
 birth of the savior at dawn,
a reckoning for all mankind
 hear and listen to the heartbeat of the mind,
God's greatest gift for the body and the soul
 blessings from the Lord, to make us whole.
all set forth on Christmas morn
 Welcome one, welcome all,
the son of God is born.
