Make of my heart a manger, Lord, to receive the newborn Christ Child.
\nCalm my fears, and give me peace, Lord, that I may witness the birth of the Christ Child in everyday experience.
\nGive me a sign, Lord, that the Christ Child is born in the midst of the simple life.
\nIn steadfast, stable faith, Lord, I behold the newborn Christ Child in the manger of my heart.
\nThat\u2019s what this season of love is about. \u201cIf we\u2019ll just keep our hearts as open as a Bethlehem sky, then we can take this feeling with us the rest of our lives.\u201d
