Scenes of Christmas

Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)



Scenes of Christmas run through his mind
As this old man now sits here blind.
But oh, there’s so much left to see
In the heavenly places where he’ll be.

His sight restored; another gift;
But this one with a little twist.
The joy he feels as he sees friends.
True love like this just never ends.

Joy and peace in the kingdom of God
Everyone, everything; Praise the LORD!
