Once Upon Then
Once upon then...
We know not when
This weary earth
Felt a strange birth
A certain time
Of stirring chimes
A joy foretold
In message bold
A coming light
That shines so bright
A humble stay
Upon the way
In simple flair
In love affair
A vibrant word
As yet unheard
A Son of Man
To help transcend
A life most brief
To change sad grief
An unknown fest
Of love's prompt quest
To help us see
A sure glory
To yet disrupt
Odd ways corrupt
As humble grace
Set free our race
Now Christmas Day
Casts profound way
Glimpse how hope frees
Each life journey
As love brings bliss
And brand new lease
Thus faith can heal
As love reveals
Glory to God
Our Father Lord
For now and here
A gift of cheer
Thus each ascends
To Heaven's span
Live love's goodwill
As grace moves feel
