A TOKEN OF LOVE

Tis said in a stable in Bethlehem
On the cold night our Savior was born,
A caring Robin with wings outspread
Fanned a fire's dying embers
To keep the precious baby warm.
Making a bellows of it's wings
Hovering near the infant's lowly bed
The flames lept high and brightly
Burning the Robin's brown breast to red.
But the happy bird sang joyfully
As they do unto this day,
Thankful that it could serve the Lord
In a small sacrifical way.

Legend? Yes. . .but at this glorious season
As we honor our Savior's birth
Perhaps this beautiful legend will remind us
How God's loving sacrifice blessed the earth.
When His son, the ChrIst child, grew to manhood
He gave something priceless, precious and rare.
His life's blood poured out on Calvery
My sinful life ~ and yours ~ to spare.
As we devote our days to serving Him
Not in receiving but in sacrifical giving,
I pray we have learned the precious truth:
To love and share are the riches joys of living.

MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM THE WAGNER FAMILY
