In the depths of winter, when the days grow short
And the world is blanketed by a quiet snow
We gather around the fire, with loved ones near
And celebrate the miracle of Christ’s birth long ago.
For on a cold and starry night, in a humble stable
Amidst the hay and animals lowing
The Son of God was born, a tiny babe
Whose coming signalled the dawn of a new day glowing.
He came to bring us hope and peace
To heal our brokenness and sin
To show us that love conquers all
And that in Him we can be born again.
So we light our candles, sing our carols
And share in the joy of Christmas morn
Knowing that Christ’s love surrounds us
And that we are never alone.
But as the winter fades and spring draws near
We prepare for another miracle to come
For on Easter Sunday, we celebrate
The triumph of life over death, of light over the dark and glum.
For on a cross, upon a hill called Golgotha
Christ gave his life, for you and me
To free us from the grip of sin and death
And to give us hope for all eternity.
He rose again on the third day, just as he said
Breaking the chains of death and despair
Proving that love and grace can conquer all
And that He is always with us, everywhere.
So we gather on Easter morn, in our finest clothes
With hearts full of wonder and awe
Knowing that Christ’s love has redeemed us
And that we have been given a new life, a new law.
For the miracle of Easter and Christmas
Is not just about the events of long ago
But about the eternal love of God
That we can experience every day, as we go.
So let us embrace this love with open hearts
And let it fill us up and overflow
For in Christ, we have everything we need.
And in Him, we are forever made whole
As we reflect on the miracle of Easter and Christmas
We are reminded of the love that never fades
A love that surpasses all understanding
A love that we could never have made.
For in the story of Easter and Christmas
We see the power of redemption and grace
We see the sacrifice of a perfect Savior
And the hope that comes in His embrace.
In the shadows of Good Friday
We witness the weight of sin and despair
Yet in the light of Easter morning
We see the victory that Christ did share.
For in His resurrection, we find new life
A life that is filled with hope and light
A life that overcomes the darkness
And shines with a love that is ever-bright.
And in the story of Christ’s birth at Christmas
We see the wonder of a promise kept
A promise of a Savior who would come
To heal the wounds that had been wept.
We see the miracle of a baby born
In a manger filled with straw
A baby who would change the world
And fulfil the prophecy of old.
For in the miracle of Easter and Christmas
We see the hand of God at work
We see the depth of His great love for us
And the mercy that He did not shirk.
So let us rejoice in these miracles of faith
And let them inspire us to live with love
Let us spread the light of Easter and Christmas
And bring hope to those in need of.
For in the story of Easter and Christmas
We find the peace that we all seek
A peace that comes from knowing Christ
And from surrendering to His will meek.
So may the miracle of Easter and Christmas
Be always present in our hearts and minds
And may we share this gift with others
As we journey through life’s twists and binds.
