Funeral at the Shore

Snowflakes falling, Christmas coming
Born in a manger
No longer strangers
To God our Father
Who sent His Son
To live among us
And rescue us from danger

Our sinful, flawed, and helpless selves
The weight of shame and crushing doubts
Fled like the shepherds ran that night
To the baby wrapped in LIGHT

Gift of love for you and me
Born to die upon a tree
To bear the burden of our sin
So that we could belong to Him
Receive this gift He offers free
LIFE with God eternally
He came, He died and rose again
Death could not keep its hold—and then

One sweet day we’ll rise with Him
Watch with joy, He’ll come again
Together, wait in hope and sing:
“Glory to the King of Kings†• Savannah Coleman

• Today is the beginning of advent, which means “coming.†How can we find hope in both Jesus’s first coming (as a baby) and His second coming (when He’ll return)?

The Word became flesh, and lived among us. John 1:14a (WEB)
