Every time we, love~ every time we give,

Two things upon this changing earth can neither change nor end;
the splendor of Christ's humble birth,
the love of friend for friend.

As we struggle with shopping lists and invitations,
compounded by December's bad weather,

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given;
and the government shall be upon his shoulders;
and his name shall be called Wonderful,

Christ the Lord.
