Once more the tender Christ Child's feet Touch softly on the earth; And myriad infant voices sing The marvel of His birth. Once more cold human hearts are filled With sacrifical love; And mystic voices seem to bring Good Tidings from above. Oh, Thou, who came in infant guise To make the Father real, Set thou on every nation's heart Thine everlasting seal, That peace, whose Prince Thou art, may reign Upon our troubled earth, As countless hosts again proclaim The marvel of Thy birth. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...AFTER WRITING A POEM by DAVID IGNATOW SENRYU: BLIND DATE by TIMOTHY LIU SONNET: 31 by EDNA ST.
