Love is Born
Love is born
With a dark and troubled face,
When hope is dead
And in the most unlikely place;
Love is born,
Love is always born.
Michael Leunig.
Christmas
I see a twinkle in your eye,
So this shall be my Christmas star
And I will travel to your heart:
The manger where the real things are.
And I will find a mother there
who holds you gently to her breast,
A father to protect your peace,
And by these things
You shall be blessed.
And you will always be reborn
And I will always see the star
And make the journey to your heart:
The manger where the real things are.
From: “Southern Star”
