IT STARTED WITH MARY, SO HUMBLE AND MILD
WITH THE HEART OF A WOMAN AND THE FAITH OF A CHILD
SHE ROSE ABOVE ANYTHING SHE MIGH HAVE FEARD
TO ANSWER “AME” WHEN THE ANGLE APPEARED
AND ON THAT FIRST CHRISTMAS IN SPITE OF THE COLD
A SWEET NEWBORN BABY WAS ALL HERS TO HOLD
AS STRANGERS AND SHEPHERDS, IGNORING THE SHEEP
WATCHED WHILE SHE ROCKED LITTLE JESUS TO SLEEP
WHAT JOYS WE CAN KNOW WHAT A MIRACLE STARTS
WHEN WE, TOO, CAN SAY YES
TO GOD IN OUR HEARTS.
