love still exists – v2

in the nativity
the ornaments
family traditions
memories of Christmas
of love come down

love still exists
renewed each Christmas
reminders in these items
the family memory tree
coming to life

Christ came at Christmas
love came from heaven
the memories, the promise
the manger, the crèche
life for you and me
