"There's Not a Thing That God Can't Do!"
WINCHESTER OLD CM (“While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks”)
"There's not a thing that God can't do!"
The angel said. "Not one!
For Mary, God has favored you
And you will bear God's Son." |

John Came Preaching, Bearing Witness
REGENT SQUARE 8.7.8.7.8.7 (“Angels, from the Realms of Glory”)
John came preaching, bearing witness,
Pointing to God's only Son.
He proclaimed the truth with boldness:
"Now believe! God's light has come!"
Yet he would not be the focus;
He proclaimed a greater One. |

That love and faith will soon embrace
And peace and justice kiss. |
