Let one bell toll for each and every soul in this most joyous season To remind our hearts of a greater gift that lifts our lives with reason Renewed with hope, with love and peace, reborn each Christmas day From Grace we're shown the greater plan by a child that led the way To live this life in virtuous light, it's worth dispelling wrongs Would surely leave its epitaph sung in loves most enduring songs With extended hands and spirits full, that never bend or sway Could truly be the greatest gift for the child that led the way. 12/21/2016
