Angels Entertaining the Holy Child Christmas Cards

Angels Entertaining the Holy Child
Catholic Christmas Cards

INSIDE TOP:
How far is it to Bethlehem?
Not very far.
Shall we find the stable-room
Lit by a star?

Can we see the little Child?
Is He within?
If we lift the wooden latch,
May we go in?

May we stroke the creatures there-
Ox, ass, or sheep?
May we peep like them and see
Jesus asleep?

If we touch His tiny hand,
Will He awake?
Will He know we've come so far
Just for His sake?

Great kings have precious gifts,
And we have naught;
Little smiles and little tears
Are all we brought.

For all weary children
Mary must weep;
Here, on His bed of straw,
Sleep, children, sleep.

God, in His mother's arms,
Babes in the byre,
Sleep, as they sleep who find
Their heart's desire
-Frances Chesterton

INSIDE BOTTOM:
May the glad song of the angels resound in your heart all through the year! Glory to God in the Highest!
