Dreams Of Old

I had a dream I'll share with you
It took place many years ago
I was taken back in time
Over many centuries you know

Back to the land of Joseph
And other Biblical people who
You learned about in Childhood
Up through the years as you grew

It is the time of Jesus birth
When shepherds were tending sheep
Out in the fields of Bethlehem
While the sheep were fast asleep

There were Angels in the sky
Singing Good tidings to all men
Unto you is born this day
The Savior in Bethlehem

You'll find Him in a Manger
He is the King of Kings
They left their flocks immediately
Took all their camels could bring

They came to worship the New Born King
Bringing gifts of frankincense gold and myrrh
The most valuable gifts of the times
Even more precious than fur

Glory to God in the Highest
The Prince of Peace has come
He is the Savior of the world
May God's own will be done

 

This is why we celebrate Christmas

Jesus in a Manger lay

God has sent His love this way

Happy Birthday Jesus we say

    Wow. I really like this poem. One thing I find it hard to do is take Bible stories and get them to rhyme. I think this is wonderfully done. Awesome job!

      Thank you PianoMan. Glad you like my poem. Try your rhyming of Bible verses. If you get stuck, just ask the Lord to help you, He will give you the words you need.
