LITTLE BABY
JESUS
Oh, Christ you
came
So many years ago,
Oh, night of nights
When Christ’s light shown.
Bathe
me in your light,
Blind me with desire,
Hold me tightly
In this sea of life.
Jesus,
I look down
At the figurine,
Of you in a manger
On my study table.
A figurine
that my
Little daughters bought,
Thanks to Grandma’s purse
So many years ago.
You came in helplessness
To give me eternal life,
Now, it is I
Who am helpless.
Hopeful only in meekness
Not in boldness,
Living in joy
For my master cares.
My raft of life
Needs your constant
Steady wind and oar
To stay afloat.
Oh,
Christ you came
So many years ago,
Oh, night of nights
When Christ’s light shown.
Hold me in Your light!
