<B>O Holy Night</B> and <B>Mary Did You Know</B> are two of the most beautiful Christmas songs to me! Thanks for singing them Dan and CRB!

Hi Buck and Jill!

 

[EROS]

Before I’d be a slave
I’d be buried in my grave
And go home to my Lord
And be saved

O, what preachin’!
O, what preachin’!
O, what preachin’ over me, over me

O, what mourning…

O, what singing…

O, what shouting…

O, weeping Mary…

Doubting Thomas…

O, what sighing

O, Freedom…

We fall down
We lay our crowns
At the feet of Jesus
The greatness of
Mercy and love
At the feet of Jesus

And we cry Holy Holy Holy
We cry Holy Holy Holy
We cry Holy Holy Holy is the Lamb

We cry Holy Holy Holy
We cry Holy Holy Holy
We cry Holy Holy Holy is the Lamb

[Saphire]

No room, only a manger of hay;
No room, He is a stranger today.
No room, here in His world turned away,
No room, no room.

Angels in Heaven up yonder
Watch with amazement and wonder
To see the Son of the Highest treated so.

No room, here in the hearts of mankind.
No room, no cheery welcome could find.
No room, surely the world is blind,
No room, no room.

Do You Know The Son Of God?
Do you know the Son of God?
The Son of God?
The Son of God?
Do you know the Son of God
Who died and rose again?

Oh, yes, I know the Son of God,
The Son of God,
The Son of God.
Oh, yes, I know the Son of God
Who died and rose again.

Do you love the Son of God?
The Son of God?
The Son of God?
Do you love the Son of God
Who died and rose again.

Oh, yes, I love the Son of God,
The Son of God,
The Son of God.
Oh, yes, I love the Son of God
Who died and rose again.

Will you obey the Son of God?
The Son of God?
The Son of God?
Will you obey the Son of God
Who died and rose again.

Yes, I'll obey the Son of God,
The Son of God,
The Son of God.
Yes, I'll obey the Son of God
Who died and rose again.

Jesus is the Rock of my salvation,

[Saphire]

Who has believed our message and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?
He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him.
He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows, and familiar with suffering.
Like one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not.

Isaiah 53: 1-3

 

[EROS]

I have decided to follow Jesus,
I have decided to follow Jesus,
I have decided to follow Jesus,
No turning back, no turning back.

Additional Verses:
2. Though none go with me, still I will follow
3. The world behind me, the cross before me

 

[Saphire]

Surely he took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows, yet we considered him stricken by God, smitten by him, and afflicted.
But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed.
We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way;
and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all.

Isaiah 53: 4-6

 

[EROS]

ONE SOLITARY LIFE ... He was born in an obscure village. He worked in a carpenter shop until he was thirty. He then became an itinerant preacher. He never held an office. He never had a family or owned a house. He didn't go to college. He had no credentials but himself. Nineteen centuries have come and gone, and today he is the central figure of the human race. All the armies that ever marched, all the navies that ever sailed, all the parliaments that ever sat, and all the kings that ever reigned have not affected the life of man on this earth as much as .... ONE SOLITARY LIFE

The Night Before Christmas/Amy Grant



Children carry through the streets
A brightly painted star.
Angels gather round the hearth,
Strumming on guitars.
Men of great renown and faith
Say prayers on boulevards.
It's the night before Christmas.

But you don't have to be an angel
To sing harmony.
You don't have to be a child
To love the mystery. (mystery)
And you don't have to be a wise man
On bended knee.
The heart of this Christmas is in you and me.

(The night before Christmas.)
(The night before Christmas.)

If your heart's been longing,
You've been afraid to try,
Sorrow's kept you company,
And the dance has passed by,
I'll lift you up and blaze with you
Across the moonlit sky
On the night before Christmas.

'Cause you don't have to be an angel
To sing harmony.
You don't have to be a child
To love the mystery. (mystery)
And you don't have to be a wise man
On bended knee.
The heart of this Christmas is in you and me.

The heart of this Christmas is in you and me.

Hold On To Christmas/4HIM

Light the fire and trim the tree
It won't be long till Christmas Eve
So close your eyes and make belive
That dreams really do come true
Manger scenes and mistletoe
Christmas cards from friends we know
They'll disappear like melted snow
At least for another year

Watching children as they play
Makes you wish that Christmas would stay

All year long just for
dreamers like me
And those who believe
The joy of the season should stay
All year long like a December snow
That just won't let go
Let's hold on to Christmas this year

Long ago and far away
Love was born on Christmas Day
A cattle stall, a bed of hay
A star shining in the sky

Even as the shepherds prayed
Heaven knew that Christmas would stay

All year long just for
dreamers like me
And those who believe
The joy of the season should stay
All year long like a December snow
That just won't let go
Let's hold on to Christmas this year

All year long like a December snow
That just won't let go
Let's hold on to Christmas this year

"I wants to go where Moses trod,
O de dying Lamb !
For Moses gone to de promised land,
O de dying Lamb !
To drink from springs dat never run dry,
O, &c.
Cry O my Lord !

Before I 'll stay in hell one day,
O, &c.
I 'm in hopes to pray my sins away,
O, &c.
Cry O my Lord !
O, &c.
Brudder Moses promised for be dar too,
O &c.
To drink from streams dat never run dry,
O de dying Lamb ! "

Season Of Love/4HIM

Outside on a cold and lonely street
A homeless woman sleeps this Christmas
Tonight, there's a child that dreams of home
In an orphanage alone
This Christmas let's show them we care
For all they really need
Is a helping hand from you and me

The season of love
I really believe that this world
Would be much better
And people would come together
If we share the reason for the season of love
The spirit of Christmas will change
This world forever
If we all will play our part
Just by giving form the heart
I know Christmas will really become
The season of Love

Somewhere underneath a Christmas tree
Is a simple manger scene this Christmas
And there lying on a bed of straw
Is the greatest gift of all
This Christmas lets let the world know
For all they really need is the love of God
To set them free

The season of love
I really believe that this world
Would be much better
And people would come together
If we share the reason for the season of love
The spirit of Christmas will change
This world forever
If we all will play our part
Just by giving form the heart
I know Christmas will really become
The season of Love

Though the holiday passes away
And the lights begin to fade
The spirit of Christmas will remain

The season of love
I really believe that this world
Would be much better
And people would come together
If we share the reason for the season of love
The spirit of Christmas will change
This world forever
If we all will play our part
Just by giving form the heart
I know Christmas will really become
The season of Love

"O, Jordan bank was a great old bank !
Dere ain't but one more river to cross.
We have some valiant soldier here,
Dere ain t, &c.
O, Jordan stream will never run dry,
Dere ain't, &c.
Dere's a hill on my leff, and he catch on my right,
Dere ain't but one more river to cross."

Through His Eyes/4HIM


So confused, all of them stood surprised
For there was no hatred in His eyes
Jesus knew none of them realized
They were the reason He must die
Though the words they said
Condemned Him to death at Calvary
He knew deep inside that

If we could see
through His eyes
Then we could dare to love
the way God loves
If we could see
through His eyes
Then we would understand
the way God understands
For His eyes see through the
surface right down to our needs
Far beyond where we are
to where we can be
If we could only see
through His eyes

In God’s sight there is no black or white
‘Cause it isn’t color that He sees
(For) side by side, we are so much alike
For we were created equally
And though years and time
Have built walls and lines
Between us, I’ll always believe that

If we could see
through His eyes
Then we could dare to love
the way God loves
If we could see
through His eyes
Then we would understand
the way God understands
For His eyes see through the
surface right down to our needs
Far beyond where we are
to where we can be
If we could only see
through His eyes

I know that in God’s providence
there is a higher plan
For He alone creates
a perfect heart
And He desires to see the good
In each and every man
That He has purposed
from the start

If we could see
through His eyes
Then we could dare to love
the way God loves
If we could see
through His eyes
Then we would understand
the way God understands
For His eyes see through the
surface right down to our needs
Far beyond where we are
to where we can be
If we could only see
through His eyes

"We 'll run and never tire,
We 'll run and never tire,
We 'll run and never tire,
Jesus set poor sinners free.
Way down in de valley,
Who will rise and go with me ?
You 've heern talk of Jesus,
Who set poor sinners free.


"De lightnin' and de flashin',
De lightnin' and de flashin'
De lightnin' and de flashin'
Jesus set poor sinners free.
I can't stand de fire. (Thrice.)
Jesus set poor sinners free,
De green trees a-flamin'. (Thrice.)
Jesus set poor sinners free,
Way down in de valley,
Who will rise and go with me ?
You 've heern talk of Jesus
Who set poor sinners free."
