The Greatest Gift

By Jessica Alexa Bayonito

 

How is it that Christmas is different

Now, than it is like before?

All I know were food, drinks and parties

And beautiful presents from the stores

 

Wrappers no longer excite me

And ribbons have lost their charm

No gift ever truly satisfied me

Though they cost a leg and an arm

 

So I sat down one day and remembered

The true story of Christmas day

There's no reindeer, nor elves nor Santa Claus

Just a Child in a manger with hay

 

He came, with no pomp nor commotion

There He lay, as humble as can be

The Lord became such a tiny, tiny human

For one day, He'll save sinners like me.

 

All along I thought I was doing great

'Till I saw the depths of my sin

Now I understand why the angels sing "Gloria!"

For this Child is the Savior King!

 

Now I know this Christmas will be different

For He is the reason, after all

He's my Gift, wrapped in swaddling clothes

because it's Jesus, the greatest Gift of all.

A Song of Gratitude

By  Jessica Alexa Bayonito

Thank You for the life, my Lord

That I live to see today

Thank You for the air I breathe

And the wakefulness to say:

Thank You Lord for my eyes that see

and the hearing in my ears

Thank You Lord, that You are God

Who shatters all my fears

Thank You Lord, that though I'm weak

With Your strength I'm standing strong

And even in my days of doubt

You're still with me all along.

I praise Your name, Lord Jesus Christ

For You died to set me free

And thank You for Your message of love

For all the world to see

Thank You Lord for the fount of courage

And the grace to make it through

I'm saved through faith in You, Lord Jesus

I am nothing without You.

 

I thank You Lord, for everyday

And all the things You do

But most of all, Lord God most High

I'm thankful I have You.

What is...

By Jessica Alexa Bayonito

What is spring without water?

What is a vineyard with no vine?

What is life without You, Lord Jesus,

Without Your heart in mine?

 

I am but a dry, parched wasteland

Who longs for the pour of rain

My cries at night are worthless

My labors are in vain

 

The enemy tried to kill me

To blind me with his lies

To quench the fire inside me

Right in front of my eyes

 

But Jesus, You came to give me life

A life to live in full

A hope to life eternal

In a world so sad and cruel

 

So I will choose Your way, My Lord

I'll hold on to what's proven true

Who am I without You, Jesus?

And what is life without You?

You Care For Me

By Jessica Alexa Bayonito

 

 

You went from God to man, in all humility

You came so in darkness we'll find a way to flee

You came down from Heaven so I'd be set free

You came for me, Jesus. You came here for me

 

You chased down my heart, no matter what the

cost

You are my way back so I won't be lost

You found me, Lord Jesus, when I thought I'd

never be

You came for me, Jesus. You came here for me

You've taken the bruises, the hurt and the pain

You've taken the torture so I won't have to again

You gave up Your life on the hill of Calvary

You died for me, Jesus. You died here for me

You've conquered and won, death has lost its

sting

There's no one who's greater than our Risen King

One day You'll come back, Lord, in glory for all to

see

I'll wait for You, Jesus. You'll come back again for

me!

From the Warzone: The Princess's Letter

By: Jessica Alexa Bayonito

 

 

Will someone ever love a woman such as I?

With wounds in my arms and tears in my eyes?

Time has passed by, oh how long will it be

'Til the prince of my dreams comes to me?

 

When will the springtime finally start

A blossoming season with this war-seasoned heart?

'Til when will I wait for a virtuous man

to fight the good fight with me to the end?

 

I'm reminded to hope on my Father on High

Who hears my every breath and every sigh

He has chosen the best for me, that's true

So I pray, O Lord, let me stand firm with You.

 

Prepare my heart, Lord, for your chosen prince

You know I have prayed for him ever since

As for now, let me serve you, my God, King and Father

For faithful You are, and faithful You'll be forever.

 

To you, young man that the Lord did choose

I promise to stand with you, should we win or we lose

Until then, my sweet prince! I shall see you in stride

And I hope to fight this battle with you by my side.

 The Writer  

by Jessica Alexa Bayonito

 

I can write all day about you

And I hope my pen won't mind

For the words keep flowing in my head

And the rhymes rush deep inside

 

I can write all day about you

And I'd go for miles and miles

How the sunlight bounces off your checks

When you smile your brightest smile

 

I can write all day about you

How our souls just harmonize

And how I see a supernova

When I look into your eyes

 

I can write all day about you

And no, it's more than fiction

They can tell me that, but I know it's more

Than just mere imagination

 

I can write all day about you

But the story's still incomplete

'Cause I'm writing about you

And you're someone I've yet to meet.
