Waiting - 3

So hard for us to do
to still ourselves
to sit, waiting
in this modern age
So many stimuli
so much motion
ever by our side
Waiting for the Christ child
these days of Advent rest
heeding the words of the gospel
preparing us for our savior
His star rising, ever guiding us to him
entering into the stable, kneeling before our king
Waiting, amid the tumult
the frenetic pace of life
waiting for the Christ child
sent to give us eternal life
