God comes,
weak and tender,
nursing at a mother’s breast,
and we know we are loved;
we know we are blessed.
Eternal Creator,
heartbeat of all being,
small and sweet,
entrusting yourself to us,
we are saved
from our distrust of you.
Stars adorn us with their light,
friendly and quiet,
make all nights beautiful,
and light our way.
God assumes flesh
and makes all flesh holy.
Strangers include us in their singing.
Despite our striving all we can do is
wonder,
and there
is our salvation.
Alleluia!
