Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

As we go our ways
as we walk all of our days
better to give than to receive
just as we are told

But in this moment, in this season
a changing of our minds
the joy of Christmas
in the gift we all have received
The one gift, Jesus Christ

God, love, born as a child
humble, in a manger bed
This man, this servant
going as the master led
even to the cross

Better than any gift
we give or we receive
On him should be our sights
his star guiding our days

Better to receive,
Christ into our hearts,
to give his message to all;
God loves us
his arms are open wide
to all who accept his gift
