In some ways, this is our story
visitors from the east, the west
all points of the compass
coming to the Christ
following his natal star
His light shining
hope, love, God’s grace
piercing the darkness
revealed in the coming
of the babe in the manger
the man growing
choosing the cross
to set us free
Following his light
into relationship
leading us home
to our father, our master,
calling us to heaven above
