Merry
Christmas to the
one I love,
Even
on this day of
love for all,
Remembering
the love of one
whose call
Redeemed
all those whose
hearts his love
might move.
Yet
only one love
does my spirit
prove,
Chosen
in a passion
like a squall,
Having
in such ecstasy
withal
Rejoiced
in what we were
created of.
In
such love do we
find our way
outdoors,
So to
be drawn to love
of flesh and
soul,
Traveling
beyond our
village green,
Moving
towards the wash
along our shores
As
our love joins
the greater love
unseen,
Shining
with dark
passion on the
whole.
