The Truth may bind you to a tree
The Truth will always set you free
The Truth found wrapped in swaddling clothes
Having come to a world full of trouble, filled with sorrow and woes
A heart that is willing will follow: regardless the cost
A heart wounded and broken will wander; it’s lost
The power, the strength, all healing – comes from above
The cost of salvation: a price, paid out of love
Today as you ponder the stable scene that night
“Fear not” says the child; “I am with you, fight the good fight”
Light has come into the world, for all men to see
From it darkness must scurry, it must in the presence of righteousness – flee
The dark has not understood it
And has cleverly tried to use wit
Disguising, deceiving – being driven by blind grit
Alas, those who embrace it; will with it enter the pit
The truth – Christ the Savior, the Redeemer was given a call
He would cause some to stumble and others to fall
Their cause, they will not loosen: don’t good people always win
But stubbornness, lust – pride – greed covers them in the remnants of sin
Stature will pass as this world withers away
There is a judge who is coming; – very soon, any day
And the world will take notice of what he will say
The truth can bind you to a tree
The truth when spoken can set men free
The truth in the light will help blind men to see
The Truth born in a stable – He came for you, and for me
As darkness sets and the light rises and shines
An opportunity arises for a renewing of your heart and mind
Be reminded all peoples bedazzled by things of the night
That when morning comes, with it comes first light
Look upon the face that came to be near
To lead you, to guide you to free you from fear
To Him you are priceless; by His heart it is clear
You are a treasure, one He holds dear
I cannot fully proclaim who he is or of his love
But I will gladly tell you: grace and mercy come from above
There is none other like him, He himself: is Love
The Truth – He will bind you to heaven above
Turn your eyes towards the tree, to the flight of God’s dove
To Him and by Him power given to rule
Oh, you may to yourself, but to Him never fool
Is your eye on the starling or does it rest on the dove
He is the Way, He is the Truth, and the Life: His only! Is True Love!
