Always Hold Dear

a poem about always holding dear the story of Christ's birth

The wonder of our Savior’s birth:
God Himself, yet a baby on earth!
It captures our hearts this time of year,
but it’s a truth to always hold dear.
It’s a beautiful thing: Christmas cheer!
Yet joy should rest in our hearts all year.
Always hold dear, that a baby so small
grew to live, die, and rise to save us all.
