In the Quiet

A King, our Savior;

He came, in the quiet.

To redeem, to set free;

to give His life.

It was on a holy, still night

in an obscure little village

He first came, unannounced,

unnoticed by those around.

And He continues, in the quiet;

bringing comfort, speaking truth;

ready to love, ready to fill

those who wait, those who thirst.

May we learn from Him;

not seeking fanfare or applause,

but in the stillness of our days,

may we live our lives, faithfully

giving our lives away, for Him,

because of Him.

(Pausing to listen and learn from Him during this 

often busy and always beautiful Christmas season.
Thanking Him, Immanuel: God with us)
