Love came down at Christmas,
Love all lovely, Love divine;
Love was born at Christmas;
star and angels gave the sign.
“Love Came Down at Christmas” by Christina G. Rossetti, United Methodist Hymnal 242

Love came down at Christmas and, indeed, God is with us, a gift for us to experience each and every day.
