Brilliant Star

First stanza is part of our 14th Christmas collaboration

Brilliant Star of Bethlehem
Shine across each age
Let us see the gift of our king
for mankind He came to save

Heavenly choir to shepherds sang
proclaiming the birth of Christ
and now His love birthed a song
that lives within my heart

The true meaning of Christmas. The star of Bethlehem and the nativity. Often lost in the commercialism of current times. Very nicely composed Cherrie. Takes me back to school days and the nativity play. Lovely memories of the little ones.

I stood beside more than one manger and prayed in the night. Still chasing that star, I guess. Good to know Christmas is still properly remembered. Thank you for posting.

I think once we surrender to Him. It becomes a treasure that we carry with us and I can only imagine the glory of that night.

[M. J. Smith]

Glory, yes, but fear too. The awesome responsibility placed in the hands of Saint Joseph and Mother Mary to raise and train this holy child to the best of their human ability! Such a thing should humble the proudest.
Thank you for reminding us all that the greatest gift came, not from a store, but from Heaven itself.

and that song is the REAL meaning of Christmas....
not how Many presents lie under the tree, or who has the most decorated house.
the spirit is what really counts.
