Customs Change With Years

A wreath on door once announced death Not death now but famous birth A birth_a Savior drew breath Baby's breath salvation for earth The whole earth rejoices_praises Praises the Savior who freed it It has been freed from all curses Curses gone forever_joy fits The crown fits the King whom we praise We praise by Wreath and with breath A door invites over ages For ages wreath represents birth_death

Yes, the symbol of the wreath changes from one of death to one of birth during Christmas, Sara. You're off to a great start on this one! Love, Carolyn
