This has to be one of my most favorite nights of the year. I am eagerly awaiting the 10:45 Christmas Eve services at our Church this year. I cannot even begin to describe the beauty of our little church on this most holy night of the year. I eagerly await the news that Christ, the Savior, is born!!! I'm getting teary eyed just thinking about it.
Christmas has moved me beyond words this year. My most favorite Christmas song is Oh Holy Night. I most definitely LOVE two particular versions of the song. One is sung by Martina McBride while the other happens to be sung by Josh Groban. Both have voices that move my every ounce of being. Tears well in my eyes upon hearing the song....Oh Holy Night.....Oh Night Divine!!!!!
To me, this song sums up my feelings for Christmas. And
tonight, it is what I leave you with as you prepare yourselves for the Christ
Child's birth. It is whatI leave you with as you go about your holiday festivities.
Oh Holy Night
Oh holy night!
The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of the dear Savior's birth!
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till he appear'd and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!
Fall on your knees
Oh hear the angel voices
Oh night divine
Oh night when Christ was born
Oh night divine
Oh night divine
Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming
Here come the wise men from Orient land
The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger
In all our trials born to be our friend
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
Until tomorrow, my friends......Christ, the Savior is born......Christ, the Savior is born
Think Thankfully!!!
