Is He Welcome?
The inn keeper slowly shook his
head,
“We have no room for you,” he
So Mary, aglow with virgin grace.
Brought forth her King in a lowly
place.
Is your heart, like the inn, too
crowded for Him,

Are your Christmas thoughts a
passing whim;
Or will you eagerly open the door
To welcome the Christ Child
forever more?
The choice is yours, you can turn
Him away.
Or bid Him enter on Christmas
day.
A Country
Christmas
Folks who choose to live in town
Will never know the charm
Or glowing wholesome goodnes^s
Of a Christmas on the farm.
With crops laid by, a wintry sky
Bodes no ill for the morrow;
For one look at the p^ntry...,shelf
Will chase the deepest sorrow.
Vittles, cooked up country style)
Just simply can’t be beat;
And there are other blessings too,
Along with things to eat.
Compared with moonlight beaming
down
Upon a tree lined lane;
Colored lights on city streets
Are hardly worth their stain.
And somehow, friendship’s sweeter
Than it is iii other places;"
’Cause neighbors have a bigger
smile
Blooming on their faces.
We wish the very best for you.
Beside your fireside warm;
And by the best we mean the joy
Of Christmas on the farm.
Holiday Recipe
We’ve all had our troubles,
We’ve all had our bumps.
And at times we get worried
And down in the dumps.
That’s when we need Christmas
To chase melancholy;
To usher in laughter
That’s hearty and jolly.
Toss your frowns out the window.
Say goodbye to your blues;
It’s Christmas again,
So spread the good news.
Don’t think of yourself.
Instead think of others;
Remember, the Saviour
Said all men are brothers.
We can truly be thankful
For so many things;
With blessings like ours
t^e’re lucky as kings.
So get in the'^mood
And your cares will depart;
While joys of the Yuletide
Remain in your heart.
He Brought Hope
God’s greatest gift, a little
stranger.
Cradled in a borrowed manger.
Came to bring salvation for us all;
In His tiny, outstretched hands
He held a hope for far-flung
lands,
A lasting hope through nations
rise and fall.
0 star that shone one Holly, Night,
Illuminate the world with light,
And may embattled man awake to
see
That brotherhood, and love
supreme,
Must be for all a common dream
If we’re to find the peace to set
man free.
ALWAYS FORWARD
It’s odd, but true, that every
time you break a record you are in
reality making a new one.
