Gift
by Joy Wieters

This gift I give you now, today,
Is in worth nothing tall.
Rather it is quite tiny,
Something very small.

A simple gift, not worth a lot,
A toy, a vase, a flower.
But with your thanks it multiplies,
More by every hour.

This gift I give is more, it seems,
When you look very close.
A simple way to show my love
For you in a small dose.

My gift reminds us of a Gift,
The greatest One of all.
When Magi knelt and shepherds worshiped
And heard the angel's call.

This gift, this miracle, as we remember,
Was my Savior's birth.
When Angels sang, "Glory to God!"
And "Peace to men on earth!"
