would we recognize the Christ-child – v2

would we recognize the Christ-child

the holy family, the couple

from away, with no place to stay

unsure what they would no next

would we offer them heat, shelter,

a place within our walls, our shelter

would they shiver out in the cold

or would they find a place of welcome

changing the spelling from “worshipped” to “worshiped”,
