Wanting to put Christ back into Christmas Day,
A family turned the lights off, lit a candle to pray
Reading from God’s word, they then sang a song
While watching the candle dancing along
The house grew quiet as each pondered in thought
Of Bethlehem’s star and the new babe they sought
Feelings grew tender, Dad wiped at his tears
As he was given to when the Spirit more nears
The light of Christmas... so sacred, they knew it was real!
Could it last longer? They wanted to feel
At church the next day, they were more reverent
From the peaceful night they lovingly spent
Now, a candle remains on their table to stay
Bringing memories back of that sweet Christmas Day
