Joseph made a treasure-box from the wood of an olive tree;

crafted it so tenderly and gave it to his wife, Mary.


Mary took that treasure-box and laid it upon her knee.

“Here, within my treasure-box, I will keep our treasures three”


Golden bracelet for His tiny arm - symbol of royalty.

Fairest Lord Jesus, make me pure, I long to worship Thee.


Frankincense to make the air smell sweet - symbol of deity.

All of our praise rises up to Thee, Holy Nativity.


Bitter myrrh to use in time of death - curse of humanity.

Lord, I will praise Thee with every breath - for all eternity.


Joseph made a treasure-box from the wood of an olive tree.


Matthew 2:11
