GUARD HIM, JOSEPH
By Sally DeFord

Guard Him, Joseph, as He slumbers, there behind the stable doors
Let no errant sound distress Him, tread thou softly on the floor
Linger watchful round the manger; hush thy voice and still the beasts
For thou hast within thy keeping Christ, the infant Prince of Peace.

Guard Him, Joseph, through the darkness; watching o'er Him till the dawn
Bid the shepherds enter meekly, stand in wonder, gaze in awe
Trim thy lamp and shield thy candle; see they burn all through the night
For thou hast within thy keeping Christ, the everlasting Light.

Guard Him, Joseph, from all danger; keep thy vigil nigh His bed
Let no harm nor grief befall Him; stand thou in a father's stead
When His mother's arms be weary, hold Him gently as thine own
For thou hast within thy keeping God's own well-beloved Son.

A Note From The Gull


Wishing you peace today and always.

"Patria est communis omnium parens" - Our native land is the common parent of us all. Keep it beautiful, make it even more so. Blessed is all of creation

Blessed be my beautiful people
Blessed be the day of our awakening
Blessed is my country
Blessed are her patient hills.

Mweh ka allay!
