Holiest of Nights

A star did shine on the holiest of nights. Down on shepherds came the bright light. Above a lowly manger into a world full of danger. Came the light unto all men, the keeper of peace within. The babe born and wrapped in poor swaddling cloths. Cherubim and seraphim thronged the cold air; announcing their glories, and gift sent by heaven above. Wise men still wandering on the endless journey. Guided by the bright shinning Star in the East. Heaven declared him the one called Wonderful. Born in Bethlehem this night. Behold the beasts of the manger bowed their knees To worship at the foot of The lowly manger of the Christ Child. Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
