THOUGHTS ON A CHRISTMAS SONG
THEY LOOKED FOR SOMEONE
WHO THIRSTED FOR ANIMAL BLOOD
THE SCENT OF BURNING FLESH
BUT ONLY A BABY CAME
FOR AN IMPRESSIVE FIGURE
WHO WOULD ROUT THE ROMANS
BUT ONLY A BABY CAME
A VOICE OF THUNDER
WHICH WOULD QUELL THEIR ENEMIES
BUT ONLY A BABY’S CRY
CLAD IN ROYAL GARMENTS
SPLENDID TO SEE
BUT ONLY A DIAPERED BABY
TO CHANGE THE WORLD
TO MAKE IN THEIR IMAGE
BUT ONLY A BABY NEEDING CHANGING
LIKE A CHILD
LOOKING THROUGH HIS LEGS
SEES THE WORLD UPSIDE DOWN
SO THE WORLD IS TOPSY-TURVY
BECAUSE A BABY CAME
