More than Colours
These special little candies,
Come in colours bright and fun.
There’s more than colour to be found;
A story of God’s Son.
The M’s turn into W’s,
If you turn them upside down.
A few more turns and E and 3’s
Are waiting to be found.
M is for the manger,
Where Mary laid her precious boy.
Little did the world know,
This baby would bring great joy.
The W is for the Wise Men,
Who followed a bright star.
The star revealed a king was born,
They came but, oh so far.
In Bethlehem they found Him,
Just as they had been told.
3 is for the gifts they brought;
Frankincense, myrrh and gold.
W is also for their worship,
As they bowed before their King.
Salvation is the promise given,
There’s nothing we can bring.
Faith alone is how we come
He died to set us free.
E is for eternity,
God’s gift to you and me.
(Barbara Hook’s Version)
