The Twelve Days of Christmas: Day 10


Here's our little wise man with some popcorn.

Matthew 2: 1, 2

1 Now when Jesus was orn in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,
2 Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? For we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.
Stars were Gleaming
Stars were gleaming, shepherds dreaming;
And the night was dark and chill.
Angels' story rang with glory;
shepherds heard it on the hill.
Ah, that singing! Hear it ringing,
Earth-ward winging, Christmas bringing!
Hearken! We can hear it still!
See the clearness and the nearness
Of the blessed Christmas Star,
Leading, Guiding, wise men riding
through the desert dark and far.
Lovely showing, shining, growing,
Onward going, gleaming, glowing,
Leading still, our Christmas Star.
