Shining Star!

 I found myself with a child,

 An immaculate conception so strange,

Who will believe my report with Child?

Who will believe my life has carved a new path?

To him I was betrothed to; 'Tossed to stay or leave’,

To leave me quietly or disgracefully,

To leave without a word,
Then came a VISION,

A vision of my BABY!
 A vision for my Partner!

Oh! Husband to stay,

A vision so strong and convincing of my baby and I,

To him, I was betrothed to, stayed!

He travailed with me until I brought forth,

I brought forth in Bethlehem,

Bringing forth a King in a Manger,

For there was no room for us,

For there was room for us among Flocks,

...Then Ark Angels echoed it loudly to Shepherds,

  Unfolding my Shining Star to Gazers,

Far from the East, journey was made for my Kingly child,

A journey of GOLD,

A journey of Frankincense,

A journey of Myrrh,

A journey of Precious gifts,

A journey of Precious words,

Keeping all in my heart as He grows!
