Christmas Eve Lullaby

Slumber easy, slumber light: Snow falls upon a winter’s night. The winter days, they are so fleet; Too soon, the snowflakes change to sleet. Snuggle warm in your soft bed, While you try to find the thread Of childhood dreams you used to sing Expecting morning light to bring All your secret joy and longing- Around the tree, was such belonging. Now the treasure of Christmas morn Is deep inside you being born; You, the stable; you, the cave- Torchbearer of the love that gave Meaning to our earthly living; Gift divine that we’re now giving. So make sure then that all you’re meeting See joy of Christ shine through your greeting; And all other days that you get to spend Don’t forget to put a little Christmas in.
