Our Christmas Wish To You





A Christmas Song
Words by Tudor Jenks


When mother-love makes all things bright,
When joy comes with the morning light,
When children gather round their tree,
    Thou Christmas Babe,
    We sing of Thee!




When manhood's brows are bent in thought,
To learn what men of old have taught,
When eager hands seek wisdom's key,
    Wise Temple Child,
    We learn of Thee!




When doubts assail, and perils fright,
When, groping blindly in the night,
We strive to read life's mystery,
    Man of the Mount,
    We turn to Thee!




When shadows of the valley fall,
When sin and death the soul appall,
One light we through the darkness see—
    Christ on the Cross,
    We cry to Thee!




And when the world shall pass away,
And dawns at length the perfect day,
In glory shall our souls made free,
    Thou God enthroned,
    Then worship Thee.





May you each have a blessed and Merry Christmas from all of us here at Heroes, Heroines, and History!





Jennifer Uhlarik discovered the western genre as a pre-teen when she swiped the only “horse” book she found on her older brother’s bookshelf. A new love was born. Across the next ten years, she devoured Louis L’Amour westerns and fell in love with the genre. In college at the University of Tampa, she began penning her own story of the Old West. Armed with a B.A. in writing, she has won five writing competitions and finaled in two other competitions. In addition to writing, she has held jobs as a private business owner, a schoolteacher, a marketing director, and her favorite—a full-time homemaker. Jennifer is active in American Christian Fiction Writers and lifetime member of the Florida Writers Association. She lives near Tampa, Florida, with her husband, teenaged son, and four fur children.
