Jesus is the Ultimate Gift

Jesus is the gift that perfectly fits every heart
and it is with His love that all celebration starts.
We rejoice in Him as we remember His birth
and thank God for sending His only Son to earth.
His life led from a manger to a cross on a hill
where He faithfully followed His Father’s perfect will.
He freely laid down everything so that we could live,
and there is no greater treasure anyone could give.
Like a scarlet ribbon His love wrapped around the cross
and He offered it to us all at the greatest cost.
So each time that we give we remember what He’s done
and honor the perfect Gift – God’s one and only Son.

You & Me

When I laugh, you laugh with me
When I cry, I cry alone...
When you're attacked, I defend you
When I'm attacked, I defend myself...

I am a Coke bottle...

I carry my own load.
I'm on my own.
When my load is full and heavy,
I can only wish a human would tip me over...
And let the heavy burden flow out of my narrow neck.
Though I'm beautiful,
I carry a load of deadly potion.
I'm bottled up.
I'm a Coke bottle.

I am a shield...

I carry my own shield.
I fight my own battle.
When I turn around, there's no back up.
I look over the battle line, the attackers are my allies.
I stand on my own.
I'm a shield.
