The Silent- Night Chapel Poem by DM W

O the Silent - Night Chapel in the town
Of Oberndorf is a sanctuary!
In a mad world filled with discordant sounds,
It is a place where we feel truly free.
At Christmas time, wondrous hymns are always
Sung for the Innocent One who redeems
With His precious Light all who have remained
Too long in darkness. In Him, they can dream
Once again, of new possibilities.
O this rich, spiritual centre lies
Between the fresh snow and the Christmas trees!
Although all that's born is destined to die,
This place speaks of a sacred space within
Us, that will protect us from mortal sins.
