Before the Manger – v2
The
story of Christ
long
before the manger
the
promise of God
long
ago, in the prophets
in
the ancient scriptures
but
more than this
more
intimate, personal
The
story of two couples
of
Elizabeth and Mary
cousins,
one older, one so young
each
pregnant, afraid, uncertain,
their
husbands, trying to understand
the
plan God had for them
these
babies about to be born
Fathers,
Zechariah and Joseph
trying
to believe
to
be faithful to them
God’s
plans for them
needing
the angels
to
guide, to comfort
to
help them along
Long
before the manger,
the
star’s ascending
the
couples’ lives intersecting
helping
them remain
faithful
to God
each
playing their parts
in
God’s perfect plan.

Singing the Song of Mary – v3
We
sing, joining her
Mary,
the mother of our brother,
our
Savior, the Christ;
Singing
the song of Mary,
the
Magnificat, its melody alive
shining
in that night
The
darkness illumined
by
His bright birth star;
Claiming
our faith like Mary,
a
servant of God, willing,
walking
humbly with our Father,
welcoming
our King.

------------
Magnificat
Joining
Mary, her song
sung
to God, for all generations -
blessings
we share, each of us
with
her, all creation, blessed by the creator
humble
servants are we, walking with our brother
sharing
this wondrous message, with her, the angels,
those
who have gone before us
A
choir, singing her song, our song
of
praise, of grace, of God’s great works
rejoicing
with our mother, our sister
at
all the almighty has done for us,
for
the people, the descendants of Abraham
by
faith, by his love, all of us saved

Her Servant Song – v2
If we listen to her song,
the beauty of her words
joining her servant song
all of our day long
her obedience,
power, faith,
Leading her
a vessel for the Lord
knowing her customs
the law of her land back then
accepting the Holy Spirit
using her to change the world
So we too, like Mary
answer when we are called
as the Lord wishes;
Let me be your servant
all of my days

Mary and Joseph's Journey – v4
Mary
and Joseph’s journey,
so
much more, much more
than
traveling from Nazareth
to
Bethlehem, the Temple
Holy
City of David; Jesse’s shoot,
the
root of Jesse, long buried
coming alive, to
life
So
much more, the distance
their
journey, each one,
heavenly
blessed, touched by angels
by
the voice of angels blessed
called
to be the agents, the servants
the
means by the savior, coming to save
into
the world, human, incarnate
Christ
is the living God, the babe she carried,
his
first son, so far their journeys
traveling
to David’s city, fulfillment
their
journey, holy and right
leading
us, in the Advent-tide
all
of us pilgrims now with them
journeying
to His manger bed
