Wake up and hear the bells ring out, <br />Proclaiming Christmas Day, <br />As congregations everywhere, <br />Kneel down in homage to pray. <br /> <br />Such celebrations here for us, <br />One birth of such acclaim, <br />What news! Here was a baby who, <br />Could cure the blind and lame. <br /> <br />One tiny heart beating for us, <br />A 'human' sent by God, <br />To cleanse the world of evil deeds, <br />When on this earth he trod. <br /> <br />The many words he uttered, <br />Were spoken to save mankind, <br />And even in our present days, <br />This babe is there to find. <br /> <br />So remember now one holy child, <br />For us he bravely died, <br />Our Father who is kind and true, <br />Will always be by our side. <br /> <br />Wake up and hear the bells ring out, <br />A truly joyous chime, <br />For they are saying, he is still <br />Here with us, for all time.<br /><br />Ernestine Northover<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/one-tiny-heart/
