The stars gleamed brightly the night he arrived,
humbly joining the human race.
An open stable welcomed him with oxen, a donkey,
and angels surrounding.
He came as the beating heart of the future
formed as spirit and flesh

and weakness to strength.
Wake the lion, the savior is here!
This is the Christmas story!
