O Holy Night! Truly…

Only 2 more sleeps until Christmas….

Go out and download this version of O Holy Night from Brady Toops or just take a listen to it here on this album from Relevant Magazine.

or maybe check out this trending video from Home Free

 

Either way,  let these words from this favorite filter through your mind.

 

Truly He taught us to love one another;
His law is love and His gospel is peace.
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother;
And in His name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all within us praise His holy name.

Come Thou Long Expected

Here’s a nice video from the Skit Guys that reminds us how Christ coming was/is the center of history. For years, the people of God looked forward to that day and now we look back with the same expectant joy!

The Peace Carol

One of the great things about Christmas carols is that their timelessness can take us back to Christmases past.  I believe that in itself can make Christmas special.  So reaching back in the archives of my Christmases gone by  are two versions ( 1 and 2 ) of John Denver and the Muppets singing the Peace Carol.  Such a great song with such great meaning!  AND MUPPETS!!

The hope that has slumbered for two thousand years
The promise that silenced a thousand fears
A faith that can hobble an ocean of tears
The peace of Christmas Day
