At This Christmas 2006

Hush, dear friends, my little child sleeping,
His gentle breath rhythmic, soft and clear,
Oh, beautiful babe, purity shining,
The presence of Love is tangible here!

Look, dear friends, my little child waking,
Tiny eyes open, countenance fair,
Cattle staring, some shepherds just watching,
The presence of Love is tangible here!

Rejoice, dear friends, with every day dawning
The virgin birth of new hope crystal clear,
In stillness, grateful, we too all feeling
The presence of Love is tangible here!

Oh, at this Christmas, let all, hands holding,
Bring into our lives what we hold most dear,
Just promise: let Love be now all-guiding;
The presence of Love be tangible here!
