Composed by Margery Hood –
Joy of spirit
Peace of mind
Hope for betterment
All people’s search for these
When will we find them?
It is unclear
It is so close to us, the answers
Yet, it is hidden because is it what we really desire
It takes strength of mind, heart and soul to search for treasure
It takes endurance, to see and openness to believe
It takes the conquering of oneself and to know, steadfastly,
Alone, you are Not
It is not found in celebrations, but in celebrating the reality of
hope
It is not found in materials, but materials can be used to uplift as
a memory
It is not found in giving, unless merciful compassion is involved
It is not found in sinners, but wretchedness is ours to destroy,
narrow is the path, wide for the merciful
In all things, perseverance, the will to push your self
It takes change
In all things, there can be found a good, find it
In all things kindness produces a flicker
In all things patience; time is key to healing
Everyday look up for comfort, strength, and grace
To do His Will no matter what
Everyday spread to all gratitude
For the endless mercy given to us is a gift
Merry Christmas Every Day
The Birth is beyond our imagination, but not our reach
Shout out for joy, it’s unstoppable
Amen
