Album Description:
This Christmas season I celebrate the manger scene with photos of its symbolic depictions. The Christmas creche (known locally as "belen") is close to Filipino hearts for it is displayed in most homes and churches, together with the "parol" (star lantern)

Poem: "The Manger and the Cross" by Roger Overton - (1) Christmas means lights both colorful and bright/ It means cheerful giving, though budgets are tight/ For many it means family from both near and far/ And many a great big tree they’ve topped with a star/ For some it means a church service followed by presents/ A time to pause and reflect on Christ’s earthly presence/ (2) From the time of the curse we knew He’d appear/ He would fulfill all of Scripture and make the truth clear/ But sometimes we forget the full purpose and scope/ We forget the true reason we have so much joy and hope/ (3) If “now in flesh appearing” means He only came/ Then our position before God would be all the same/ Mere holy incarnation would do nothing to pay/ For all of our sins or keep God’s wrath at bay/ For if that lowly manger didn’t lead to a high cross/ Then we’d be a cursed race, doomed for eternal loss/ (4) But not only has Christ come, He also lived and died/ So that all who follow Him may with God forever abide/ Christmas led to Easter thus giving a reason/ For joy, hope and peace beyond just this season.
