No Presence I See…
Sure of what I hope for,
certain of what I do not see—
Her presence is what I long for
More than presents under a tree…
So we are canceling Christmas
this year—no presents, wreath, nor tree,
And though we long for Christmas past—
It’s through the veil we strain to see…
Sure of what I hope for,
certain of what I do not see—
Christmas busy-ness I abhor,
My present is her presence…soon I’ll see!
So we are canceling Christmas
At least as once we knew it…
Looking back to first Christmas past
God’s Present to us – His presence
Born in a baby…to be born in us…
Later, He’d choose to lose it…
Sure of what I hope for,
certain of what I do not see—
God’s presence is what I long for
More than presents under a tree…
Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.
