As
the lights were dimmed
A
hush came over the crowd
In
the quiet a question was posed
What
will you give Jesus for Christmas?
I
knew in an instant
As
his face came to my mind
Our
relationship broken and strained
I
would present this to my Lord
A
beautifully wrapped package
Rested
in my hand
Held
close to my heart
Then
raised to the Lord
In
an instant my burden was lifted
Stress
I had felt melted away
Once
again my mind was focused
Aware
of the presence of the Lord
How
did this gift exchange happened
I
will never fully know
As
I presented my gift to the Lord
His
peace filled my soul
