In the Stillness

In the stillness of a church Where

candles glow,

In the softness of a fall Of fresh white snow,

In the brightness of the stars That shine

this night,

In the calmness of a pool Of healing light,

In the clearness of a choir That softly sings,

In the oneness of a hush Of angels' wings,

In the mildness of a night By stable bare,

In the quietness of a lull Near cradle fair,

There's a patience as we wait For a new morn,

And the presence of a child Soon to be born.
