2009 Christmas Card


The Darling of the World is come,
And fit it is, we find a room
To welcome Him. The nobler part
Of all the house here, is the Heart,
Which we will give Him; and bequeath
This Holly and this Ivy Wreath,
To do Him honor; who's our King,
And Lord of all this Revelling.

From A Christmas Carol, Sung to the King in the Presence at White-Hall
by Robert Herrick (1591-1674)

**********

May the Christ Child bless you at this holy season.
May His love, joy, and peace fill you.
May He, King of Kings and Lord of Lords, rule the world with Truth and Grace.

Merry Christmas!
