CHRISTMAS PREVAILS

Christmas prevails with blest spirit of hope Heralding Messiah’s eternal gift Imparting peace around compassion* scope. Offering peace wrapped with forgiveness rope To secure love and care upon faith’s lift Christmas prevails with blest spirit of hope. Glad tidings deafen crises though hearts grope Holidays meant to bridge enmity-rift Imparting peace around compassion scope. Reaching gracious reconciliation slope Partnerships transcend differences’ shift Christmas prevails with blest spirit of hope Yuletide offers kindness; yea, not nope Good cheers linger as past conflicts flee swift Imparting peace around compassion scope Since God upholds each season’s divine cope We can pray and seek for constant uplift Christmas prevails amidst spirit of hope Imparting peace around compassion scope.
