For This He Came
by Robert [Bob] Schaetzle Sr.

FOR THIS HE CAME

This gift of hope and Holy treasure
For this He came, God's Emanuel
His gift of love we cannot measure

He came for us, bringing hope and peace
In Him we'll rest, our burden and care
His Majesty to reign, His power increase

This babe from Bethlehem, joy evermore
The Father's gift of love, hope, and peace
This Christ child, to worship and adore

A promise for all, to bring life new
Born in a stable, with love and grace
From Mary's song, a dream come true

Power and strength, new each day
Faith given new, from power on high
Trust Him more, when seeking to pray

Precious King, for us to tell
Our Fathers gift from Christmas
This Child we know as Immanuel

AMEN

My Personal Bio:
God has led me to writing that began over 45 years ago when I began to write my own love letters in my children's birthday cards, along with other devotional messages. After retirement from a 40 year career with USPS I have been serving others in lay pastoring at a local Re-Hab Center for 12 years. Writing essays from my sermons. A contributor to 'Faith Writer Magazine' @Faith Writer.com I've had two articles published through them which can be secured through their archives; 'Not Seeking Self' and 'How are we Finishing the Course?'  A Christmas poem, 'Child of Hope' all published on line.  

I reside in Sunnyvale, Ca with my wife Yvonne close to our five grown children and their families
