The Lasting Noël
Quiet room with music sweet
Christmas time is here.
Warm the house with hearts, that meet.
Outside's crisp and clear.

Embroidered present, nearly done,
can I make another?
Much like this, it's blessed fun.
For daughter, like for mother.

Almost over as it starts,
Christmas days are blurred.
Life of labor when it parts,
what's the lasting word?

Will we know the best Noël
throughout Eternity?
Joyful days with hearts, that tell,
"Saved from sin, set free!"

The best, that Christmas ever gives
is Jesus' virgin birth.
The heart forever joys and lives
in the Savior's given worth.

I want to live Th'Eternal Day
in all, that Christ, I Am,
is for me, Life, Truth, and the Way,
The crucified, and risen Lamb.

Will there be lights and Christmas trees?
Will there be coffee shop nights?
The truest joy is when each sees
The Savior from all plights.

The Christmas moments, that I seek
are truly Christ Himself.
Oh, let my heart forever speak
of Jesus' lasting wealth.
