so this is christmas

merry christmas, friends.  i find these lyrics express christmas beautifully and will allow the songs to speak sing for themselves.

"o come all ye faithful, joyful and triumphant.  o come ye, o come ye to bethlehem.  come and behold him, born the king of angels...born this happy morning, o jesus!  for evermore be thy name adored.  word of the father, now in flesh appearing.  come let us adore him, o come let us adore him, o come let us adore him, christ the lord.  broken nations, broken dreams.  we need a savior and we need a king." {o come all ye faithful, owen pye}

"the future was bright and clear with hope and a promise made.  the light of the world was near, choirs of angels sang, heaven's exalted king in a manger lay.  cause a baby came and everything changed.  when our dreams grow dim and hearts grow cold, he is never far from our broken soul.  gloria!  our god is with us!  gloria!  he has come to save!  mercy and love now for every generation for the savior came and everything changed."  {everything changed, eddie kirkland}

"then let us all with one accord sing praises to our heavenly lord, that hath made heaven and earth of nought.  and with his blood mankind has bought.  noel, noel, noel, born is the king of israel."  {the first noel, josiah james}

"joy to the world, the lord is come.  let earth receive her king.  let every heart prepare him room.  the hope of every heart comes alive in emmanuel...joy to the world, the savior reigns. the heart of god that heals us, his name is jesus. and the wonders of his love!" {joy to the world, jason gray}

"angels we have heard on high, sweetly singing ore the plains.  and the mountains in reply, echoing their joyous strains.  gloria, in excelsis deo!  come to bethlehem and see, christ whose birth the angels sing.  come, adore on bended knee, christ the lord, the new born king.  hallelujah!"  {angels we have heard on high, eazy tiger}

"and the first time that you opened your eyes, did you realize that you would be my savior, and the first breath that left your lips, did you know that it would change this world forever?  and i, i celebrate the day that you were born to die, so i could one day pray for you to save my life."  {i celebrate the day, relient k}

...i celebrate the day that you were born to die, so i could one day pray for you to save my life.

"for unto us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called wonderful counselor, mighty god, everlasting father, prince of peace."  {isaiah 9:6}
