Oh Holy NightI was on my way home Snow was starting to fall My arms full of packages I'd bought at the mall I hummed Silent Night Along that busy street Smiling at the people My life seemed complete Such a beautiful night Santa on his way Coursing through the sky With his reindeer and sleigh The stockings were hung The tree shining bright Snow is still falling There'll be magic tonight As I rounded a corner Movement caught my eye Beside the nativity There stood a little guy He was tattered and dirty Then he kneeled in the snow Beside the baby Jesus With his face all aglow He looked up and asked me Are those gifts for the King? I brought Him this Angel Though it has a broken wing But it's very special And I know He can tell My mommy gave it to me She went to Heaven to dwell Mommy she taught me To give and to pray Bringing my most valuable gift To Jesus today I clung to that little boy My tears streaming down Then I thought of Jesus In that thorn filled crown I'd forgotten the meaning Of Christmas you see Till that tattered little boy Sweetly looked up at me I fell to my knees Right there in the snow Asking God to forgive me The boys face all aglow The snow swirled around me Oh Holy Night Gone was the Angel That showed me the light By.Deb/nana5 Poetry Ad-Free Upgrades Vote for this poem |
