One Holy Night

One Holy Night Holy Infant of the stable You shattered my darkness In one Holy Night. Though, tyrants and terrors Threaten and pursue One Holy Family bring the lowly His Light. I, too, shiver in the cold, As enemies draw near, Taking heart that angels ring me round.

Being

Hide me, hold me, help me, Living Rock of my being. You, Truest Truth, No mere symbol, But Holy Being, Are Ground of my being. Creating with a word, the world, You speak my name, And, moment by moment, Sustain my being. Christ, my Rock, May I forever be in Thee. © 2015 Joann Nelander
