When the announcement was made
by the angel Gabriel
that she as a virgin was to become the vessel
for a child to be born by the name of Emmanuel .
Mary knew that she was chosen and it was Gods will ,
for her ,
and she said unto me let thy will be done
according to thy word .
So she knew that she
would give birth to Gods only son .
Her sister Elizabeth in the place where she was
so far away had a visit from Mary because ,
She also had a child on the way at an old age .
Who would know the miles
or the hills she had to engage ,
On the journey to Hebron
or somewhere around there .
She went to share with her sister
what was told to her .
Then Mary crossed the desert
where no roads start or end ,
with Joseph her spouse and a donkey to Bethlehem .
They travelled on , like refugees,
a Mother to be .
They searched for a suitable place,
a sanctuary .
So it came to be that in a stable on the ground ,
the new born king Emmanuel
to earth had come down .
In that special moment
when life's just begins for some ,
Mothers and their children bond together
and become , one in a smile
and one in a gaze from eye to eye .
An understanding of love ,
something greater on high .
Captured in innocence as foretold by an angel .
Born is the King of kings ,
Bless his name Emmanuel
Oh how joyful the mystery
that presents the truth .
When God performs miracles
there is no need for proof .
Blessed the name of Jesus
and the day of his birth .
Blessed be Mary Queen of heaven
and Queen of earth .
Blessed be the joy
that never ceases to amaze .
Blessed be the light that shines .
Alleluia ,
sing praise .
Blessed be that journey
and the long road they had trod .
Blessed be the virgin Mary, the mother of God .
Blessed be Joseph her spouse
and the little donkey .
Blessed be God and his angels and saints .
Glory be to the father and the son and the holy spirit .
Amen .
As it is and as it will be .
So be it .
