Every morning is Christmas Day

My Christmas Poem. Thank you for being born, Jesus.

Now I lay me down to sleep.
I pray the Lord my soul to keep.
If I should die before I wake
I pray the Lord my soul to take.

If I should slumber throughout the night
Remind me on morrow's light
That Jesus Christ was born this day
In a manger's bed of hay.

He suffered and counted it loss
To bear our sins upon a cross.
And if we follow in his way
Every morning is Christmas Day.

Merry Christmas everybody!!!

Great job

[TL Boehm]

short and sweet and wonderfully penned, even if I am two months late reading it. Peace.

I remember this childhood prayer, but your addition is wonderful and hopeful.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year my friend...

In reply to Talulu ...
The first stanza is a childhood prayer my mother taught me. The rest was mine.

Cheers and thanks!
Doc.
