Merry Christmas mesue.
O holy Child of Bethlehem, descend to us, we pray;
Cast out our sin, and enter in, be born in us today.
We hear the Christmas angels the great glad tidings tell;
O come to us, abide with us, our Lord Emmanuel!

Merry Christmas mesue.
This is my favorite Christmas song:
"Cry of a Tiny Babe"
by Bruce Cockburn
Mary grows a child without the help of a man
Joseph get upset because he doesn't understand
Angel comes to Joseph in a powerful dream
Says "God did this and you're part of his scheme"
Joseph comes to Mary with his hat in his hand
Says "forgive me I thought you'd been with some other man"
She says "what if I had been - but I wasn't anyway and guess what
I felt the baby kick today"
Like a stone on the surface of a still river
Driving the ripples on forever
Redemption rips through the surface of time
In the cry of a tiny babe
The child is born in the fullness of time
Three wise astrologers take note of the signs
Come to pay their respects to the fragile little king
Get pretty close to wrecking everything
'Cause the governing body of the whole [Holy] land
Is that of Herod, a paranoid man
Who when he hears there's a baby born King of the Jews
Sends death squads to kill all male children under two
But that same bright angel warns the parents in a dream
And they head out for the border and get away clean
Like a stone on the surface of a still river
Driving the ripples on forever
Redemption rips through the surface of time
In the cry of a tiny babe
There are others who know about this miracle birth
The humblest of people catch a glimpse of their worth
For it isn't to the palace that the Christ child comes
But to shepherds and street people, hookers and bums
And the message is clear if you've got [you have] ears to hear
That forgiveness is given for your guilt and your fear
It's a Christmas gift [that] you don't have to buy
There's a future shining in a baby's eyes
Like a stone on the surface of a still river
Driving the ripples on forever
Redemption rips through the surface of time
In the cry of a tiny babe
I'm just here to make people laugh. And to confuse people. Oh, and to irritate people.
I've gone to a Bruce Cockburn concert! (I always felt bad for him b/c of his name though )

Mat you all have a happy and peaceful holiday

The Polish Christmas was lovely.
Holiday tip: Eat with the next generation for better dialogue.
The 40+ crowd (my generation) in my family makes me sleepy.
The 5+ table is more fun.

"If I had a rocket luncher some SOB would die"
The album that "Cry of a Tiny babe" is off of "Nothing but a Burning Light" is one of my favorites.
Watching "Scrooged" with the family.
They tell me Bill Murray is not a positive role.
But I don't believe them. What a motivator!!!
