Here's beginnings and endings from the service tonight. The rest you'll need to subscribe to Mucky Paws for. Unfortunately I can post Ruth's mime about being a shepherd but at least one person asked if it could be done again next year and record it. The answer is maybe and that's final.
Quietly
Slowly
the world heaves with expectation
The stars polish their sparkle
and the angels brush their hair
the universe silences itself
for the child is moving
the ancient words are whispered again
daring those who speak them
to hope
and live with expectation
for their sound is more alive now
than ever before
quietly
slowly
as the darkness gathers
the light begins to shift.
-----
Maybe the stars are sparkling a little brighter now
may be the song as sung a little more intensely
maybe there are more trees decorates and present bought
maybe there is more Christmas cheer and happiness
maybe,
but for certain God is no longer planning
God is doing
God is putting on flesh
and wriggling in a mothers womb
for certain God will be with us very soon
