Well, it’s almost over for this year
table has been cleared of too much food
dishes piled in sinks needing attention
desserts uneaten waiting on counters
while groans, sighs and soft snores
emanate from couches many slouch-ants
Did anyone bother to give thanks
Gifts from acquaintances who come once a year
brief visits from friends, next door neighbors
why no calls from children or grandchildren
is this how getting old is supposed to feel
It takes one back to another day, another time
can you imagine how our Savior feels today
when all his birth means to so many
is party and gift, party and gift, party and gift
Jesus is the only one who should ever ask
āWhat did you get for me?’ but then, He knows
We sing a beautiful song that has these words
āI owed a debt I could not pay,
He paid a debt He did not owe, He paid it all.ā
Powerful final two lines of the post! Super. š
