without Mary’s yes – v2

without Mary’s yes
the yes of her betrothed Joseph
their purposes unfulfilled
no fulfillment of ancient scripture

only with their yes
each inspired by angels
these messengers of God
to calm their fear-filled spirits

without Mary’s yes
the yes of her betrothed Joseph
no Advent story, no Christmas,
no birth of the baby Jesus

Emmanuel, God with us

Emmanuel, God with us
something we must remember
each moment, each second
what started with creation
what was promised in the garden
what was prophesied
what came to life on Christmas
Emmanuel, God with us
always with us, promised
in the parting of Jesus
to be with us always
to the end of the age
