There will be less someday—
much less,
and there will be More:
less to distract
and amuse;
More, to adore;
less to burden
and confuse;
More, to undo
the cluttering of centuries,
That we might view
again, that which star
and angels
pointed to;
we shall be poorer—
and richer;
stripped—and free:
for always there will be a Gift,
always
a Tree!
“Less and More” by Ruth Bell Graham from “This Christmas Night: Reflections from our Hearts to Your Home” by Billy & Ruth Graham
