The Covering
A mitten is a form of covering
For cold weather and storms hovering
They are needed to warm the hands
In all of winters work and play demands
Nostalgia puts mittens on display
For riding through the snow in a sleigh
Or fun building a snowman in the cold
And snowball fights between the young and old
Winter brings us to a special season
Marking Jesus' birth is the reason
A King born, a human babe, grew up
Humiliated, beaten and given a bitter cup
On the cross He gave up His Life for me and you
His blood covering our sins both in and out of view
Realize the magnitude of the sacrifice that was given
His death enables us to go to Heaven
His love covers us like a mitten
By His Life have you been smitten?
“But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.”
Ephesians 2:13
Merry Christmas
