The Epiphany

Glorious Advent! Glorious morn!
Joy and gladness hath adorned
This momentous, spectacular, glorious scene
Of an infant born, of a Nazarene.

Beyond comprehension and fanciful schemes
Came the Gift of gifts, beneath starry beams.
Creation adorning this Child, it’s Creator.
Heaven and Earth, behold what a Savior!

Glorious night, Epiphany’s height!
Transcendent in beauty, of marvelous light.
Behold the glory the Father unfurled,
At the foot of a manger: the head of the world.

Many foretold and many had known,
Of a promised Messiah, a Kingdom, a throne.
A night of wonder, a night of grace
A night to see God in an infant’s face.
