Christmas Day

It seems like the darkness has lasted so long
and now in the silence of this night
I feel a deep joy, the breaking light of your presence.

Welcome!
Welcome to this earth and into our lives.
I have longed for your to come into my life
and to be with me here in this life-and you are.
And I feel a hint of the pure happiness and peace
that awaits us in your glory.
My heart bursts with joy
and my feet dance with abandon.
