Opinions
Beneath the gilded, lighted tree, A pile of glitter waits for me And, in the hearth, a cheerful blaze Raises my heart in grateful praise for all I see.
Beyond the windows and the walls, The wind sings out while the snow falls But, safe and snug, inside I stay, And kneel beside my bed to pray for one and all.
Within midwinter’s frosty heart The flame of hope will not depart; The sun will rise again each morn And, on the day Jesus was born, the fire start.
