A Christmas Treasury

Written and Illustrated by Melanie Herald Clifford

Book Cover

Baby Jesus

The Earth Waited

The Earth waited.
The star shone.
The cattle lowed.
Joseph helped.
Mary groaned.
The baby cried.
The heavens rejoiced.
The angels sang.
The shepherds knelt.
Bethlehem slept.
The wise men searched.
Herod planned.
Jehovah smiled.
