The Greatest Gift
Oh, my dear Lord,
To You I pray.
My blessings are many,
For what may I want?
Christmas is coming,
As I prepare my list.
But, I’m embarrassed to ask,
When so many are in want.
Guide me, Oh Lord,
What do You ask of me?
You know how selfish I am,
Is there hope for me?
I plead dear Lord,
May Your wisdom be mine?
Let Your angels guide me,
And lead me to do Your will.
My heart senses Your presence,
Lord, I hear Your voice?
Oh yes, I know You are here.
I’m listening to You.
What are You saying?
I have the greatest
This gift is what?
Your Son, “Jesus”!
I’m sorry Lord,
How easily I forget.
Thank you, Lord,
For the greatest gift.
Merry Christmas
