These Are My JOTtings, Part #2

Carols & Hymns

Christmas Carols, music snow,
blanket of our nights and days.
Peaceful comfort blest to know,
accent for the light displays.

Hymns, that teach us doctrine truth,
drawing hearts to saving grace.
List to age as from our youth,
affirming Christ His premier place.

Early dark with coldest chill,
recoil the body from the night.
Blessed music hearts do fill,
lightening mind, relieving plight.

Christmas Carols, Joy to Ears,
hopeful words to guide our way.
Seasoned hymns with message clear,
Savior came to bring us Day.
