Today Someone...Christmas 2008

Dear Friends,

Wishing you and your loved ones
A blessed Christmas
And a peaceful New Year.

Love & Blessings,

Doreen, Doug and family.

Today Someone remembers Jesus Birth;

Jesus, great beyond all splendour,
Was born of man, humble and poor.
Riches for a manger He did surrender,
Palace courts for a stable floor.

O God, who is beyond all praising,
For love's sake, sent His Son as man;
A lowly life He lived, but sinners raising
Heavenwards, according to God's plan.

Lord God, love beyond all telling,
Saviour and King we worship Thee.
Immanuel, within us dwelling,
Make us what You would have us be.

Let us Pray;

Dear Lord,

This Christmas we come to You,
With thanksgiving in our hearts;
You provide for all our needs...
This year and as the new one starts.

Let us no longer dwell on things
Ungodly, to which we may aspire;
But look upon the babe in a manger,
He is all that we should desire.

We thank You, loving Father,
For sending us Your only Son
To be born in a humble stable,
Through His life, our souls are won.

Now we ask You Lord to show us,
Your will for the year to come;
As we start afresh this New Year,
May we be all You want us to become.

Amen.
