A husband and his wife await
The birth of God’s own Son
Who comes to us through heaven’s gate:
Those three are also one.
Our human family now remade
In Holy Family three–
Brings light in dark to Eden’s shade
To make us all sin free.
Of One above their likeness here
Shows three they also are.
By them in Baby they draw near;
We’re guided by a Star.
God’s Three to stable summon us
As two now three become;
Their Baby is the One we trust
To take us safely home.
We join with Angels, Shepherds, Wise
To sing our human praise;
We’ll once again see heaven’s skies
And live in endless days.
With Him in crib again we lie
And rise with Him from tomb;
Our sinful selves will with Him die,
Be born from Mary’s womb.
A new creation of us springs
From Trinity above;
Through Holy Family’s open ring
We’re raised to endless love.
HOLY FAMILY SUNDAY
