Christmas

WORDS // SAMI BROWN

Anxiety, Depression, Guilt
The season of pretending
Where are you Joy?

Families are a mess
My sanity is in question
Where are you Peace?

Broken hearts
Longing for a hand to hold
Where are you Love?

A baby lay in a manger
Long ago
Wrapped in cloths
In the cold of the night

They say He is the Hope for mankind
They say He is the Prince of Peace
They say He is Love eternal

They say He came for me.

There is something here,
It calls me to stay
Maybe it is Hope
     Maybe it is Peace
           Maybe it is Love

The smile on a strangers face
Tells me there are answers.
Oh Christmas, tell me your secrets
