A Christmas Poem or two

GOD OF ALL GLORY
As we approach the edge of Glory
the universe itself
it simply has an ending
but of You there is no end
As we step into Your presence
The worlds are all consumed
For you are not contained by all that there is
You’re the Revelation and The Genesis
At the edge of all there is
All the worlds, all the skies, the universe
Is to stand on the shore of Your vastness
And gaze upon a sea that never ends
It’s the beginning of all of You
Simply beyond our comprehension
Yet in an effort to be reconciled
You came to us as a helpless child
Hark the herald angels sing
Unto you this day a child is born
He is the essence of all that there is
Born to be betrayed by a single kiss
Yet a Door was opened
That no power can ever shut
It’s the Door that leads to glory
It is the gospel story
And this Door is found
In the valley with the river of tears
The Hope and the Glory of all mankind
And this Door is your destiny to find
Destiny and Glory stepped down
The finite consumed by the infinite
Now mortal can glimpse immortality
By gazing upon the One who set us free
The Door, the Door, the Door to our heart
Is open and its Glory shines forth
Step through this Door step onto the shore
Of the Sea that goes on forevermore.
THE BABE
Our Lord He came from the glories above
He came to earth with a heart full of love
And choirs of heavenly angels sang
As the bells of upper Hades rang
Oh joyous night Oh Christ divine
A star in heaven, a heavenly sign
For Christ the Lord is born today
He came to show the world the way
He came to set the prisoners free
He came that every eye might see
A light at the end of a tunnel deep
A glorious harvest ready to reap
Consider this babe so innocent and pure
He has come to make your salvation sure
Lift up this child in your heart tonight
Lift up your eyes to a glorious sight
Behold your King is born today
Fall to your knees,worship and pray
For unto you a child is born
Behold the darkness gives way to dawn
A Call To The Remnant 
Susanne Schuberth (Germany) said
THE LORD
“Just wait upon me” says the Lord
Who has the power and the sword
To judge the nations all the same
Since they believed not in His name
The King was born like all of us
Was wrapped in diapers, helpless thus
A child, so small and yet so pure
Who thought He knew what He’d endure?
He was a man and it is known
God left His glory on His own
He lived a life of sacrifice
With truth He made no compromise
Whenever He met men on earth
He made them wonder at His birth
Since though He was the Son of Man
His words and signs revealed God’s plan
To save the world through cruel death
And love it till His final breath
Forgiveness is for all of these
Who doubt and fear, and bow their knees
You can be sure because of Him
Who promised to give light to dim
That God will give new birth to you
And prove that Christmas, it is true
Your spirit will be newly born
For you, He suffered pain and thorn
And He won’t cease to pray for you
Until all sadness will be through
At times, we marvel at His way
Leading the eyes in jars of clay
To look ahead, not left nor right
Until we see His glory’s light
Beloved child, you can be sure
All of His pain He did endure
It was for you, you are His dove
You are His babe, you are His love
