Christ is born. The wonder! The joy!
Stars sing brightly—
yes, light years away, they cheerfully sing.
Oceans clap, winds dance,
and even the whales sing their paean
to welcome the holy child.
Earth turns to the sun,
reveling in the light.
All Creation joys in wonder,
all Creation bows in awe,
how God so gently comes among us,
how love so beautifully blossoms here,
how grace and healing
make their home in this world.
We tune our quiet hearts, then,
to hear the throng of heaven
all around us, deep within us,
rejoicing.
Hush, and listen: Alleluia!
