Present Joys

“We thank the Lord of heaven and earth
who hath preserved us from our birth
for present joys, for blessings past,
and for the hope of heaven at last.”

Mr. T shows you how to wear over-the-calf socks, but will you listen?

Merry Christmas, everyone.

Scant and mean the swaddling clothes,
Limbs divine, like Thine, to cover!
Be the sin my spirit loathes
Bound in them and covered over:
But myself be clothed in Thee,
Jesus, by Thy Spirit free!
Welcome God’s and Mary’s Son, one of the greatest Christmas hymns ever.
