* More than two millennia have passed Since that magnificent, dazzling star Shined over the sleepy town of Bethlehem To point the way to salvation: A blessed babe, the Son of Heaven. And yet ... Just as all those many years ago, One bright truth remains, Gleaming in the night - Wise men ... STILL seek Him. ~
