I don't like Christmas,
God comes close,
it holds too many bad memories,
God comes close,
too many hurts, too many sorrows,
God comes close,
I will be alone,
God comes close,
I'll be hungry,
God comes close,
I'll be afraid,
God comes close,
God comes close,
frail,
vulnerable,
needy,
naked,
bloodied,
bruised,
and crying,
God comes close,
God comes close,
and lights
the world,
with love....
