WHEN WAS CHRIST BORN?

GERTRUDE RING HOMANS

When was Christ born?
That moment when Truth's grand omnipotence
Dawned upon consciousness, rebuking sense,
Healing and blessing as sure evidence:
Then was Christ born.

Where was Christ born?
In that same place wherever we began
To see, instead of sinning, suffering man,
A perfect being, fashioned from God's plan:
There was Christ born.

How was Christ born?
The understanding of Mind's power was brought
To earth through quickening of an inspired thought,
That all might know the Principle who sought:
Thus was Christ born.
