Do you worship the Babe in the manger,
But reject the Christ of the Cross?
Your redemption comes not by the manger,
But the death of Christ on the Cross.
If you worship the Babe in the manger,
But ignore the blood of God’s Son,
To you Christ is only a stranger,
'Til you trust the work He has done.
The Babe in the manger was God’s only Son,
Who came to the earth to die.
The Babe in the manger could never have done
The work of His God on high.
The Babe left the manger and went to the Cross
To pay the wages of sin.
The way to forgiveness is not by the Babe,
But the Christ who died for your sin.
Will you look past the babe in the manger,
Will you look to Calvary?
Oh, my friend, can't you see the danger
Of a lost eternity?
The Babe in the manger was God’s only Son,
Who came to the earth to die.
The Babe in the manger could never have done
The work of His God on high.
The Babe left the manger and went to the Cross
To pay the wages of sin.
Your way of forgiveness is not by the Babe,
But the Christ who died for your sin.
– W. S. and Mildred Dillon
What a lovely tree and poem. Hope y'all have a very Merry Christmas and a happy and Blessed New Year
ReplyDeleteYour tree looks beautiful. I was looking at your blog and noticed the family picture of John T. and Mary L. Foster. I would love to have a copy of this photo, plus any other pictures you have of the Mccomic/Foster side. My name is Mary Ann Lockhart and my great-grandmother was Lucille (mama lou) Mccomic. My mother is Dee Blakney. My email address is: marylockhart54@yahoo.com. I am making a family tree for my mother and I. Thanks so much and have a Merry Christmas!
