An Angel Spoke To Joseph Poem by Joyce Hemsley

Dear Joseph, comfort Mary in her plight,
And help her through the lonely night.
Protect her with your love so true,
Small mercies she will need from you.

Stay Joseph until her pain has gone,
The Eastern star will guide you on.
And by the morrow's early morn
The Baby Jesus will be born.

And three wise men will wend their way
To Bethlehem, where Jesus lay,
And place their frankincense so sweet
At the Holy Baby's feet.

So thank you Joseph, you are kind,
Your name will be on every mind...
Forever, until the end of the world
Your Holy story will be unfurled.
