A Cross or a Cradle

A cross or a cradle
The story begins
Jesus the born one
Still gathers us in

A stable or graveyard
A woman is there
Mary the faithful
Alone in her care

A gift or a giver
The message is clear
All may receive Him and
All may draw near.

A dream or a dreamer
A world born anew
Fresh hope for the future
For me and for you
