Hope and promise
in the wings of an angel
in the whisper of the message
in the yes of the young women.
Hope and promise
in the dreams of night
in the wisdom of the angel
in the yes of the young man.
Hope and promise
in the trust embodied
in the strength for the journey
in the yes of the young couple.
Hope and promise
in the journey to Bethlehem
in the stable as a shelter
in the yes even in the unknown.
Hope and promise
in the stable of long ago
in the message for us today
in the yes to bear Christ.
Hope and promise
in my carrying of this hope
in my living of this promise
in my yes which I give.
O Come O Come Emmanuel
the time is drawing near!
