Idyllic Vision
Embrace idyllic vision ancient desert town there yonder
Innocent revered by humble man, domestic creature wonder
Love true sacred miracle-gift of new-life baby born of holy Mother
Sent His Savior Son to redress yon heaven for every sister-brother
Peer ye down upon sweet face lying in manger’s soft hay
Vacant celebrity fanfare to celebrate humble sacred birthday
Two worshipful millennia eons plus have come and been and gone
Each single year His faithful pray a comfort “Silent Night!”-song
Clarion angel trumpeted to lowly shepherds as their vigil keep
“Noel! Noel!” Soft on still night in respected peaceful deep
Came they in bowed allegiance eager to humbly honor, holy adore
“The King is come upon the earth” as foretold in campfire ancient lore
Heaven hosts sing eternal sweet-voiced proud angelic choir
Seraphim and Cherubim celestially syncopate a hallowed lyre
While there in simple Bethlehem in a modest, rustic, wooden stable
Comes a consecrated spark to conflagrate a saintly Communion table
Long time since, servant Moses received His holy Commandments ten
First three, Love God; seven more, Love man; lest suffer soul-stained sin
Now, born the Child to become a man takes only holy breath
Conquered evil and the world and surely vacant, lonesome death
What sacred several holy words might one condense of His pure Love?
Honor Faith! Love Family! Cherish Freedom! Bestowed treasures from above
Pray! In thy tender heart lives Christ’s Love in everlasting glow
From that font allow to all ye meet holy water abundantly to flow
Give voice to celebrated prayer with “Thy” will be done
Abandon vacant “my” as humbly honor His perfect Son
Choose thee, now, one easy simple imperative decision
Love Father, Son and Holy Ghost; live His “Idyllic Vision”
Faith! Family! Freedom! Might just be all there really is…
In one eternal instant, the only mercy judgment will
be---His!
Amen!
Merry Christmas!
