Mother Of Christmas


Mother Of Christmas
By Paul McCann


Mother Of Christmas how happy we are 
to follow the light of that shinning star  .


Mother Of Christmas how precious the sight
In Bethlehem on that first Christmas night .

Mother Of Christmas in this modern age    
we hold the book and read from the same page .

Mother Of Christmas the story is told 
and appreciated by young and old .

Mother Of Christmas a heavenly light shone down  
and guided the shepherds that night .

Mother Of Christmas the angels took flight 
and remained there with you all through the night ,

Mother Of Christmas when heavens peace fell
 it landed there upon Emmanuel .

Mother Of Christmas we think of that night
 and suddenly everything seems so right  .


Mother Of Christmas throughout all of time
 nothing can compare to that night divine .

Mother Of The Sunrise





Mother of the sunrise as we open our eyes
may we have the vision to make right decisions .
Mother of the sunrise how bright and how wise
To leave things that are gone in the clear light of dawn
Mother of the sunrise there is no confusion ,
you are  real and not some illusion .
Mother of the sunrise you are there every day
In our thoughts and our words as we begin to pray .
Mother of the sunrise how blessed is the light
That shines down on us here to show us what is right  .
Mother of the sunrise the dark night it has gone
And now I see the hope that helps me carry on .
