He Lies Laying
The v-like manger-cradle
balanced the babe in a bed
so cold but comfortable
He lay
in the midst of the struggle
the manger-cradle king
with star-found worship
He lay
when they saw heaven on earth
in the clouds greater than the sun
between the branches of David’s line
He lay.
Our winter stars shine in adorned
worship when heaven on earth
lies laying
grace in the midst of our struggle, the
v-like manger-cradle
balances the babe
lies laying
love in our cold but comfortable
battle worn defense of the fire
He lies laying
joy when He lay laying
the venom’s lies left
when we left our sins
and truly
the babe lies laying still.

Well done. Gets me in the Christmas mood. And if I may be frank, that isn’t easy as it used to be.
Christmas quiet. God with us.
