Can you imagine the wonder On that silent, holy night When the beautiful star of Bethlehem Bathed the world with light? Imagine the shepherds on a hill As angels bent down low Singing songs of great joy So very long, long ago. Imagine the three wise men Who followed the brilliant star, All from different lands, They traveled so very far. Imagine you’re in a manger Where the Christ child lay Wrapped in swaddling clothes On a bed of new mown hay. Imagine shedding a tear Knowing why He came. Imagine kneeling before Him And blessing His holy name. Can you imagine life without Him? Can you imagine no Christmas day? No gathering of loved ones, No gifts to give away? If these things you can imagine, You’ll hold Christ within your heart And the Spirit that is Christmas From you will never part. © Lora Cox   Please respect author copyright Do not copy or use poetry without permission from Lora Cox
