Hear
the jubilant tones
of Christmas bells ringing
of Christmas bells ringing
And
the magnificent echoes
of angel choirs singing,
of angel choirs singing,
See
the beauty and splendor
of a starlit sky gleaming,
of a starlit sky gleaming,
Feel
the joy and wonder
in a peaceful night’s dreaming.
in a peaceful night’s dreaming.
Envision
in your mind
a baby laid on a bed of hay,
a baby laid on a bed of hay,
The
glory that beamed from heaven
on a star’s bright shining ray,
on a star’s bright shining ray,
The
amazement of the shepherds
at what the angels had to say,
at what the angels had to say,
The
shepherds kneeling to worship
the holy infant where He lay.
the holy infant where He lay.
Reflect
on the great significance
of that life changing night,
of that life changing night,
Feel
your heart being pierced
by God’s love beaming pure and bright,
by God’s love beaming pure and bright,
Find
hope that the gift of Jesus
brings salvation, peace and light,
brings salvation, peace and light,
And
assurance of God’s mercy and grace
making all things right.
making all things right.
