I sit and wait
wait for when the time will be
that I too may know Lord
that I too may feel
may
see
what this life is all about
the reason for our life
and why we are here
to see, know, feel the existence
of every person’s struggle
called life
some search the mountains
some the valleys
some search for the truth in their heads
some in the cosmos
in the end they all
we all
wait
until
we have exhausted all our own
(Lord)
looking no more to our selves
our books
our minds
our cosmos
or the other among us
(not let thy servant)
finding nothing
(depart)
to see the all
(in peace)
among us
Emmanuel

Praise to the Lord on High
Who is born
Among us
A child helpless and wrapped
In the loving embrace of newness
Glory to God in the Highest
With the Praise going to all the earth
That we may rejoice
Not in greatness
---far off there
but here
---among us
The Lord God who created all
Come as one for us all
The Birth of the Christ child has come
The Birth of the Messiah
Who will lead the people
You and I
On to love
----(Victory over death)
on to life
as the one laying here
so innocent
feel the shadow of the cross
in the night
and the angels know
and sing of this one
so innocent
who will save us all

The young and innocent one
wondered at the hearing of the words
---- (Greetings)
that thundered from on high
and yet so close
she could almost reach out
--- and touch
------ the messenger
---------- Gabriel
words that announced to the world
a new time
a new life
that would come to all people
---- (you who are highly favored)
through the womb
of this one
innocent one
called Mary
though the world did
not know
and the people did not know
and those in power did not know
and even Mary did not know
still
all
all that is
all that was
all that will be
would be changed
by the message
to this one innocent one
---- (the Lord)
that a child shall be born
and they shall call
---- (is)
his name
---- (with you)
Jesus
